R1: Stop Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine
Draft text
We condemn in the strongest possible terms President Putin’s war of aggression
against Ukraine. Russia’s full-fledged invasion constitutes an outright attack
on Ukraine’s state sovereignty while the totally unprovoked aggression
contradicts the fundamental principles of international law. Russia's aggression
has resulted in supporters of neutrality in neighbouring states reconsidering
their position. We stand with Ukraine in undivided solidarity.

Our hearts go out to the people of Ukraine, we grieve with them their
heartbreaking losses and suffering, and we are deeply afflicted by the war
crimes committed by Putin’s regime. It is with dread and horror that we watch
the massacres and atrocities being carried out by Russia in Ukraine. Targeting
civilians constitutes a war crime and these must be fully investigated with
those responsible being held accountable and brought before the International
Court of Justice.

Russia throughout the last decades has continued its systematic efforts of
establishing political and economic influence over Eastern Partnership countries
and countries that had historic or cultural ties with Russia, inhibiting these
countries' path towards democracy, and attempting to politically destabilize the
region. This includes the 30-year military presence in Transnistria, the
military conflict with Georgia in 2008 as well as the military aggression
against Ukraine in the past and annexation of Crimea.

This is not only an attack on Ukraine’s territorial integrity, but a brutal
attack on the rule of law, democracy and peace in Europe – the very foundations
on which the European Union was built. Putin’s war of aggression attempts to
destabilize Europe as well as the current geopolitical balance, threatening the
foundations of our international order, built on the values of human rights,
democracy and peace. This poses one of the biggest threats to peace and security
for all of us. The past weeks have shown that the UN as well as the OSCE have
been restricted in their reactions, showing yet again the dire need for reform.
Putin’s aggression against Ukraine and the people of Ukraine is an aggression
against all those who strive for democracy and freedom. The targeted
disinformation campaign led by the Kremlin is part of horrible war tactics of
the Russian regime. Putin’s war will continue to test the resolve, unity and
solidarity of the European Union. As Europeans we stand together. United we will
fight for an EU perspective for Ukraine, and for all those who are currently
defending our common values.

The developments of the last weeks have shown clearly and distinctly how central
a feminist foreign policy is, based on international law and human rights.
Militarisation cannot be the sole response to the threat of our security. As
European Green Family we stand for broad strategic approach, including military
and civilian, preventive and reactive, short term and long-term instruments
working towards human security. A Green Common Foreign and Security Policy aims
at defending our values by using foreign policy instruments comprehensively. Our
inclusive concept of human security is based on our firm belief in
multilateralism, international justice, rule of law and the protection of human
rights.
Our dependence on Russian oil and gas has led to a steep increase of energy
prices while fuelling Putin’s war. The current situation is proving yet again
that energy sovereignty is a question of security. As European Greens we are
committed to ending fossil fuel dependency. Now even more than ever, we need to
accelerate all our efforts to increase renewables, improve energy efficiency and
strengthen energy saving - prioritizing a truly green, socially just transition
for all, in Europe and globally. This includes renewables are our only long-term
safe, clean and sustainable source of energy: They are our path towards a more
peaceful world.
As European Greens we strongly believe that now is the time to accelerate our
efforts for a Green transition. Undermining attempts of climate and biodiversity
protection right now in the name of food security is precisely the wrong way
forward- further intensification of the agricultural industry is destroying our
food base. A full-fledged, green reorientation of our agriculture and
biodiversity policy is now more necessary than ever given the significant effect
on food production and exports from Ukraine, resulting from the invasion.
As of today, 6.5 million Ukrainian residents have been internally displaced and
more than 4 million have fled the country due to the war. The willingness of all
European Member States, but especially those bordering Ukraine, to shelter those
in need has been unprecedented. As European Greens we stand in solidarity with
all those who are fleeing war and persecution – no matter where they are from!

Therefore, we, the European Green Party, firmly condemn all human rights
violations and call for the following steps as essential in reducing Russia’s
capability to continue its aggression against Ukraine:
- AM-74-8 Cyprus Greens - Citizens Cooperation
- AM-72-1 Groen
- AM-74-19 Partidul Verde Ecologist, Moldova
- EU Member States must quickly, fully and effectively implement all
sanctions currently in place. As Putin’s escalation continues, targeted
and hard-hitting sanctions must be brought to bear immediately. While at
the same time all actors involved should continue to work on all possible
diplomatic efforts to end Russian aggression as soon as possible.
- All efforts for financial, economic and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine
must be strengthened, with all governments playing their part, exhausting
a multitude of measures. These are unprecedented times of an unprovoked
war of aggression where we are witnessing breaches of international law
and war crimes being committed, we thus see the necessity for Ukraine to
continue to receive military support quickly to be able to defend itself
against Russian attacks.
- At the same time, it is necessary for all actors involved to plan and
coordinate long-term support with the overall goal to foster as well as
implement a peace building process with all its complex, multi-
faceteddimensions. This surely involves the necessary financial support
for the reconstruction of Ukrainian infrastructure and war damages.
- The European Union and its Member States must heavily bolster all efforts
to ensure energy security for all European residents. It is high time to
massively accelerate the expansion of renewables, while boosting energy
efficiency and saving. We call for an embargo on all imports of fossil
fuels from Russia as promptly as possible. At the same time, the European
Union must work towards a common solidarity mechanism to address the
rising energy prices, especially for those threatened by poverty.

- All our efforts to ensure safe passage and establish the best possible
structures to welcome people fleeing from Putin’s inhumane war continues
to be of the highest priority. EU funds should be allocated to those who
welcome refugees, while particular attention needs to be given to
marginalised, especially vulnerable groups.
- It is central that the European Union and the international community as a
whole stand united in the face of the war crimes the world has witnessed.
We demand that all necessary support is granted to investigate them and
bring the perpetrators to justice.
- The people of Ukraine fight for the future of a democratic, free Ukraine.
It is on the EU institutions to work towards granting EU candidate status
to Ukraine and intensify its efforts to proceed with the integration into
the EU single market as soon as possible

independent civil society, human rights defenders, lawyers, journalists,
bloggers and activists in Russia.
We, European Greens call on all European governments to show the due unity and
determination in the name of rebuilding peace and justice.
