Zelenskyy’s Rallying Cry for Unity

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed leaders of the Coalition of the Willing, expressing deep gratitude for their unified stance with Ukraine, during a crucial meeting held on November 25, 2025. In his speech, Zelenskyy underscored the collective commitment to global security and the importance of inclusive decision-making.

The Ukrainian leader highlighted the successful discussions in Geneva, which resulted in a strategic framework poised to advance security collaborations, particularly with the United States and European allies. He emphasized that any decision impacting a nation must actively involve its leadership to avoid ineffective outcomes. Zelenskyy praised the coalition’s cohesive approach, contrasting it sharply with what he described as the exclusionary tactics of regimes like Moscow.

However, Zelenskyy also pointed out the harsh realities of ongoing conflict, noting that Russian aggression continues to claim Ukrainian lives daily. He called for unwavering support for Ukraine’s defense, the strengthening of sanctions against Russia, and the strategic deployment of the Coalition’s Reassurance Force. The president stressed the importance of maintaining a high level of commitment to ensure the safety and security not just of Ukraine, but of all nations involved.

The assembly concluded with plans to discuss sensitive issues in a closed session, aiming to solidify further the framework developed in Geneva and continue the momentum towards a secure and cooperative international environment.
