In September 2025, Ukraine urged Russia to accept a full, immediate and unconditional ceasefire backed by 51 U.N. member states. The joint statement, published on the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry’s Telegram channel, called for the return of all arbitrarily detained, forcibly displaced or deported Ukrainian civilians. The U.N. member states also emphasized their support for freedom of navigation in the Black Sea.
The statement was released ahead of a U.N. Security Council meeting and signed by most European countries, as well as some other nations. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is set to address the U.N. General Assembly on the same day. The U.S. did not sign the statement.
