People's lives are not politics. Under this slogan, the fourth Ukraine Action Summit was held in Washington on April 12-16, in which the executive director of NAKO, Olena Tregub, participated. The participants discussed possible options for cooperation and steadfast support of Ukraine. "Our ultimate goal is to let Congress know that their constituents are demanding additional funding for Ukraine," the event organizers, American Coalition for Ukraine, emphasized.
More than 500 participants from 47 states joined the spring #UkraineActionSummit. The event included a conference with panel discussions on investments, economics, and information security, in-depth training on advocacy, interaction with officials, and establishing long-term relations with the media. Moreover, the summit participants appealed to the Congress representatives with a request to support Ukraine.
Ukrainian Ambassador to the USA, Oksana Markarova, who attended the summit, thanked the participants for their unceasing efforts to support Ukraine. She emphasized that unity helps us achieve our goals on the way to the victory of freedom and democracy.
Olena Tregub took part in the Ukraine Action Summit as part of an advocacy trip to the United States, during which meetings were held with high-ranking American officials, media, and public opinion leaders to strengthen international support for Ukraine.
