An open letter to Trump from former Ukrainian President Yushchenko: Ukraine's desire for peace is not a willingness to surrender "Do not mistake the Ukrainian desire for peace with a willingness to surrender. The Ukrainian spirit cannot and will not be broken," writes former President Viktor Yushchenko in an open letter to US President Donald Trump. "There is no nation that wants peace more than a nation whose children are being killed. But peace cannot come by asking the victim to pay the price for the crimes of the aggressors," writes Yushchenko. Photo: Roman Filippi / AFP via Getty Images.
