Statement from Congressman Danny K. Davis on White House Meeting with President Zelensky

Chicago, IL – Congressman Danny K. Davis issued the following statement in response to the White House meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky:

“The actions of President Trump and his administration continue to undermine America’s credibility on the world stage. Today’s White House meeting with President Zelensky was not only profoundly unfortunate but also served to embolden Vladimir Putin and his campaign of aggression. The United States must remain steadfast in its commitment to democracy rather than rewarding those who seek to dismantle it.

For three years, President Zelensky and the people of Ukraine have bravely defended their sovereignty against Russia’s unjust invasion. Their fight is not just for their nation—it is a fight for democracy, freedom, and the rule of law. It is in America’s national security interest to stand with Ukraine until victory is achieved.

I will continue to support efforts to provide Ukraine with the resources necessary to defend itself against tyranny. We cannot afford to waver in our commitment to global democracy or allow authoritarianism to gain ground.”
