I am writing to express my deep concern regarding recent statements made by President Donald Trump, in which he falsely accused Ukraine of initiating the ongoing conflict with Russia. Such assertions not only misrepresent historical facts but also undermine the United States’ longstanding support for Ukraine in its struggle against Russian aggression.
As you are aware, Russia commenced its military actions against Ukraine with the annexation of Crimea in 2014, followed by further escalations in the Donbas region. The international community, including the United States, has consistently recognized Russia as the aggressor in this conflict. President Trump’s recent remarks contradict this established understanding and align with Russian disinformation narratives.
It is imperative that our leaders uphold the truth and support our allies who are defending their sovereignty and democratic values. Therefore, I urge you to publicly denounce President Trump’s misleading statements and reaffirm the United States’ commitment to Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Your voice on this matter is crucial in maintaining the integrity of our foreign policy and in standing against the spread of false information that can weaken international alliances and embolden aggressors.
Thank you for your attention to this pressing issue. I look forward to your prompt and decisive response.
