Members of the Ukrainian Christian Movement expressed support for Zelensky and explained what kind of peace the Ukrainian people seek.

The organization "Ukrainian Christian Movement," founded in the spring of 2025 (original name: Ukrainian Christian Movement), has issued a statement on its attitude toward the peace negotiations currently underway between diplomats of the United States, Ukraine, and Russia.

The authors of the statement expressed support for Volodymyr Zelenskyy and noted that “peace is not only the absence of war, but a state of life in which dignity, freedom, and the prosperity of peoples prevail, and where the rights of individuals and nations, enshrined in international law, are respected and protected.”

Representatives of the Ukrainian Christian Movement recalled statements by Catholics, the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople, and the World Council of Churches, emphasizing that “peace negotiations must be based on truth, international law, and real protection of human rights.”

The authors of the statement urged the international community “not to succumb to the illusion of a ‘quick peace’ at the expense of justice, but to move consistently toward the establishment of a lasting one.” The text stresses that “territorial integrity and national identity are inviolable.”

Earlier, the UOJ reported that Sviatoslav Shevchuk criticized what he called Donald Trump’s “so-called peace plan.”
