This resolution condemns Russia's war against Ukraine and rejects the Russia-US peace proposal leaked on 20 November 2025, saying it would force Ukraine's capitulation and reward aggression.¶¶ It supports Ukraine's sovereignty and right to choose its security arrangements, including EU and NATO membership, and calls for European leadership and stronger sanctions, including a full ban on Russian fossil fuels.¶¶¶
Key points
- Condemns Russia's war of aggression and demands immediate withdrawal of all forces and compensation for damage.¶
- Expresses solidarity with Ukraine and supports its independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity.¶
- Rejects the Russia-US peace proposal as representing Russia's maximalist position and entailing Ukraine's capitulation; insists Ukraine must be at the table.¶
- Warns the proposal would reward aggression and set conditions for future attacks, lacking security guarantees for Ukraine.¶
- Concerned about implications for European security; EU cannot allow US and Russia to dictate European military deployments or agreements.¶
- Reaffirms Ukraine's right to decide its own political, economic and security orientation, including joining EU and NATO.¶
- Urges EU member states and partners to take responsibility for European security, in cooperation with NATO, and calls on the US to reaffirm its NATO commitment.¶
- Supports the International Criminal Court's arrest warrants and opposes any immunity for those responsible for war crimes in Ukraine.¶
- Regrets that the US-led proposal avoids multilateral frameworks and lacks focus on sustainable peace, instead facilitating US investment.¶
- Welcomes the European counterproposal but notes it also lacks security guarantee details; clarity on guarantees is required.¶
- Opposes sanctions relief until Russia compensates Ukraine, withdraws troops, pays reparations and ensures accountability; no normalisation until then.¶
- Calls for EU leadership, a proactive strategy for Ukraine, stepped-up military and diplomatic support, and a full ban on Russian fossil-fuel imports.¶¶
