Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, the recipient of the 2022 World Leader for Peace and Security Award presented by the Boston Global Forum (BGF), delivered a compelling speech at the United Nations General Assembly on September 25, 2024. In his address, President Zelensky:
“There can be no just peace without Ukraine.”
“And when the Chinese-Brazilian duo tries to grow into a choir of voices – with someone in Europe, with someone in Africa, saying something alternative to a full and just peace, the question arises – what is the true interest?
Everyone must understand – you won’t boost your power at Ukraine’s expense.”
Following his UN address, President Zelensky traveled to Washington, D.C., where he visited the White House to meet with Vice President Kamala Harris.
In addition to his official engagements, President Zelensky met privately with former U.S. President Donald Trump.
His leadership since receiving the BGF’s World Leader for Peace and Security Award has been marked by a steadfast commitment to democratic principles and international law.
