This resolution sets out Parliament's position on achieving a just and lasting peace for Ukraine, urging support for Ukraine's independence and territorial integrity, and condemning US proposals that undermine Ukraine. It calls for enhanced military and diplomatic support, robust security guarantees, and a ceasefire before any agreement, while stressing the need for Russia to make concessions.

Key points

  1. Urges the EU, its Member States and partners to support Ukraine's desire for a just and lasting peace based on full respect for its independence, sovereignty, territorial integrity and right to choose alliances.
  2. Notes US efforts but considers US policy ambivalence detrimental; presses for continued work with the US and like-minded partners to ensure negotiations respect these principles.
  3. Firmly condemns any US attempts to blackmail Ukraine into surrender and proposals that undermine Ukraine's sovereignty and security, as they would embolden Russia and jeopardise transatlantic partnership.
  4. Recognises that peace negotiations require compromises from both sides, but notes Russia's absence of concessions; rejects proposals that undermine international law.
  5. Considers that any agreement must be preceded by a ceasefire, backed by effective monitoring and robust US and EU security guarantees to prevent renewed aggression.
  6. Reiterates the call to substantially enhance military, political and diplomatic efforts to defend Ukraine and pressure Russia into genuine negotiations.
  7. Underscores the strategic imperative for Europe to switch to proactive engagement, exerting decisive pressure on Russia while providing sufficient support to Ukraine.
  8. Expresses hope that genuine negotiations can establish a comprehensive peace and open the path to Ukraine's recovery and future EU membership.
