The 35th annual Faith and Freedom international forum brought together conservative US political leaders, global Christian alliances, and Ukrainian officials in Kyiv. Notable attendees included Vice President Mike Pence, General Keith Kellogg, Tony Perkins, and US lawmakers. The event, coordinated by Pavlo Unguryan of the Prayer Breakfast movement, focused on national security, the economy, and principles of faith as the foundation for modern Republicanism.

Unguryan highlighted how conservative values have successfully shaped countries like Israel, South Korea, and post-World War II Germany. He expressed confidence that Ukraine could follow a similar path to build strong states, economies, and societies. The forum involved over 1,000 participants from more than 50 countries, including delegations from global churches and international organizations.

Additionally, the first Conservative Think Tank of Faith and Freedom was announced, marking Ukraine's first conservative think tank dedicated to developing policies and governance solutions for the nation.
