Statement by Nova Ukraine on Ongoing Negotiations Between President Trump, President Zelenskyy, European Leaders, and President Putin

Nova Ukraine welcomes the increasing diplomatic efforts aimed at securing a just and lasting peace
for Ukraine. We recognize the importance of negotiations at the highest level, including the recent exchanges between President Trump, President Zelenskyy, European leaders, and President Putin. These contacts demonstrate that, more than three years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Ukraine is standing strong, and the international community understands that a durable peace requires fair and sustainable terms. Remarkably, even President Putin now acknowledges the need for security guarantees for Ukraine.

All sides have moved somewhat closer to a framework for peace, but fundamental disagreements remain. For Ukraine and partners, the principles are clear: respect for Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders, accountability for acts of aggression, ironclad security commitments, and the immediate return of all Ukrainian children abducted by Russia. We note positively First Lady Melania Trump’s advocacy on this crucial humanitarian issue, which gives hope to Ukrainian families still waiting for their children’s return and to the entire country.

On the ground, the reality is undeniable. Both countries suffered heavy, irreversible losses. But Russia’s war effort is stalling. Its economy has suffered irreparable harm and is crumbling under financial and economic sanctions, international isolation, and Ukraine’s kinetic sanctions. Once a leading agricultural power, Russia is now a net importer of food as its grain harvest falters. On the battlefield, Russian forces are sustaining massive casualties while achieving only marginal territorial gains. Ukraine’s defenders, by contrast, remain resolute and determined, they are counterattacking in multiple directions.

Ukraine continues to rely on strong Western support while rapidly increasing domestic defense production. With every passing day, Ukrainians draw strength from centuries-old culture, the unity of its people, and the courage of its armed forces.

“Ukraine’s cause is one of freedom, sovereignty, and survival — and the world knows it,” said Nick Bilogorskiy, Chairman of the Board of Nova Ukraine. “We support Ukraine’s unwavering commitment to peace founded on real security guarantees, the return of our abducted children, and the principles of international law. Ukraine will persevere, and Ukraine will prevail.”

An upcoming meeting between Presidents Zelenskyy and Trump will provide another opportunity to continue high-level talks. It is essential that negotiations continue until a just peace is secured.

Training ENT Surgeons in Acoustic Trauma

Author Matt Salter Nova Ukraine is dedicating funds to a vital and often underserved medical necessity in conflict areas: acoustic trauma. In partnership with Pivnyk Charitable Foundation, this new program will train Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) doctors in Ukraine to treat hearing loss and ear injuries. Why Hearing Restoration Is Critical An estimated 60% of people injured in combat zones suffer acoustic trauma, hearing loss, or both. Ukrainian troops and civilians throughout the country suffer acoustic injuries. Without proper treatment, the pain and sensory loss of such injuries can last a lifetime.

On the ground with Nova Ukraine’s CEO: Stories of impact from Lviv, Kyiv, and Kharkiv

Author Diana Kirk The mom passing warm slices of bread to her kids. The warehouse worker placing that last box on the truck. The child in the after-school program who just discovered: she loves to draw. These are snapshots from a trip that stayed with Nova Ukraine’s CEO Ambassador, Erin E. McKee, long after she left Lviv, Kyiv, and Kharkiv in April 2026. Because behind each moment is the work of an extraordinary partner organization, helping to heal, build, and empower Ukraine. Together, we're ensuring that the Ukrainian people remain resilient today, and thrive tomorrow. In two dozen meetings with partners, local leaders, and people on the ground, here's what Erin saw.

Aprons shield vital organs and bone marrow from radiation exposure. Collars protect the thyroid gland, which is sensitive to excessive radiation. Both are vital in long-term X-ray use. In addition to providing improved safety through the procedure, protective gear allows for more detailed imaging, which makes for improved diagnosis, better treatment, and healthier patients. Tools like these go beyond the current crisis: they are reliable and reusable, suitable for the long-term use that forms the foundation of resilient healthcare systems. Nova Ukraine, through our HEAL pillar, is dedicated to providing Ukrainian doctors, medics, nurses, and other healthcare professionals with the tools they need to build strong and lasting healthcare infrastructure across the country.

Equipping Doctors for Safer Diagnosis

Author Matt Salter Nova Ukraine’s latest investment in strong, modern healthcare systems has arrived! Lviv First Medical Association has received a shipment of protective X-ray aprons and collars. These tools keep patients and caregivers safe during procedures requiring X-ray imaging, empowering healthcare workers to give patients top-quality diagnosis, treatment, and care. The new aprons and collars protect patients and healthcare workers from X-ray overexposure in video urodynamics, the process of identifying and treating potentially deadly issues of the urinary system and bladder. It calls for specialists to stay by a patient’s side from the beginning of the imaging process to the end of the procedure. Long-term, hands-on care like this produces the best outcomes, but without protective gear, it risks exposing patients and doctors to dangerous levels of radiation. With the new gear, doctors in Ukraine can deliver best-in-class diagnosis and treatment, improving current and future outcomes across the national healthcare system.
