Negotiations, Not Escalation Tweet-A-Thon

Instead, support the following:

1) Lifting of sanctions for a Russian ceasefire and withdrawal of troops

2) Neutrality for Ukraine and no NATO expansion

3) Elections for self-governance in the Donbas (eastern Ukraine)

4) Return to the arms control agreements Trump abandoned with Russia 

We will also be tweeting to news anchors and comedians to urge them to feature diverse voices for peace in Ukraine.

There is no military solution to this conflict. The Biden administration must address the humanitarian crisis while pushing for a negotiated solution.
