This resolution reaffirms the United States' unwavering support for Ukraine's sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity as Russia's full-scale invasion enters its third year. It strongly condemns the Russian Federation's ongoing war crimes , targeted destruction of Ukrainian society, and blatant violations of international law. The resolution highlights Russia's atrocities, including deliberate targeting of civilian infrastructure, forced deportation of Ukrainian children, and the use of torture and extrajudicial killings. The House of Representatives urges the immediate and unconditional withdrawal of all Russian forces from Ukrainian territory, including Crimea and the Donbas. It asserts that any negotiations must be based on Ukraine's sovereignty, not dictated by Russian ultimatums, and stresses that Ukraine must be at the table for any sustainable peace deal. Furthermore, the resolution demands international action for the safe return of at least 19,000 kidnaped Ukrainian children, recognizing their forced deportation as a war crime and act of genocide. It also supports the continued prosecution of Vladimir Putin and other Russian leaders for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.
