Nova Ukraine is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in March 2014 that delivers humanitarian aid, medical supplies, and services to communities in Ukraine. [5] Its name translates as "New Ukraine". The organization was established by a coalition of Ukrainian-American volunteers in response to the annexation of Crimea and the broader instability following the Euromaidan protests in Ukraine and the Revolution of Dignity. [3]

Nova Ukraine coordinates grassroots relief efforts, operates humanitarian initiatives, supports education, culture and civil society, and carries out advocacy campaigns supporting Ukraine and its diaspora. [5] [6] [7] Among the Ukrainian diaspora in the U.S., it represents "a younger and more professionalized model of engagement". [8] The organization operates across multiple program areas. Its medical aid division, known as the Heal initiative, has supported more than 600 medical institutions and delivered surgical instruments, diagnostic equipment, and rehabilitation technologies to hospitals in Ukraine since 2022. [9] [10] [11] Through its people support programs, Nova Ukraine has assisted refugees, [12] internally displaced persons, coordinated evacuations and established educational initiatives in collaboration with international partners including the Howard G. Buffett Foundation. [13] The organization's public infrastructure efforts have delivered generators, emergency equipment, and solar panels to critical facilities across Ukraine. [14] As of August 2025, Nova Ukraine had delivered over 130 million dollars worth of aid to Ukraine. [15] [1]

Nova Ukraine is headquartered in Palo Alto, California, [1] and since 2022 has established volunteer chapters across eight U.S. states and the District of Columbia, along with operational offices in Ukraine. The organization's board is chaired by Nick Bilogorskiy, one of its co-founders alongside Ostap Korkuna. [1] [16] [17] In August 2025, Erin McKee was appointed chief executive officer of Nova Ukraine. [2] The organization is a founding member of the American Coalition for Ukraine. [3]

Two co-founders were each awarded the Order of Merit (Ukraine) 3rd class in 2022 and 2023 by President Volodymyr Zelensky in recognition of their leadership in humanitarian relief efforts. [18] [19] Nick Bilogorskiy was included in Ukrainska Pravda 's annual ranking “UP 100: Power of Influence” as #2 in the Society category. [20] The organization has received recognition from major charity evaluation platforms, including a four-star rating from Charity Navigator in 2024 and a Platinum Transparency Seal from GuideStar in 2025. [4] [21] In 2025, Focus magazine ranked Nova Ukraine among Ukraine's 'most impactful Ukrainians' as the #5 charity organization. [15]

In March 2014, in the aftermath of the Euromaidan movement, a coalition of Ukrainian-American volunteers established Nova Ukraine in response to Russia’s annexation of Crimea, aiming to coordinate grassroots relief efforts. [7] [22] The organization hosted cultural events and advocacy rallies in the San Francisco Bay Area, [23] coordinated multimodal aid shipments to Ukraine, and partnered with relief organizations such as UNICEF and local volunteer networks. [24] [25] [26] [27] [28]

In 2014, Nova Ukraine co-organized concerts in San Francisco that raised nearly $100,000 in humanitarian aid for Ukraine, supporting internally displaced persons and families from conflict zones. [29] Ticket sales from a performance by Okean Elzy funded $23,000 worth of medical equipment for hospitals in Ukraine. [30] [31] [32] A performance by Skryabin (band) in San Francisco raised funds for Nova Ukraine's charitable projects, [33] and a fundraiser with Eurovision winner Ruslana funded support for displaced people. [34]

The Heart2Heart program

Launched in 2015, Heart2Heart is a long-term initiative where volunteers in California collect and ship donations, such as clothing and food, to vulnerable populations in Ukraine, including disadvantaged families, orphans, and disabled individuals. [6] Heart2Heart delivered 80,000 pounds of humanitarian aid to Ukraine in 2018 and 55,000 pounds in 2019. Each year, the organization delivered approximately 600 pounds of Christmas and New Year presents to children across Ukraine. [35] [36]

COVID years

In 2020 and 2021, Nova Ukraine worked to counter the coronavirus pandemic by equipping Ukrainian doctors and nurses with personal protective equipment. [5] [37] It purchased over 4200 FFP2 respirators and 2,000 bio-safety suites then distributed them to 14 hospitals throughout Ukraine. For patients, it acquired and distributed 17 oxygen concentrators in 2020 [38] : 6  and 46 additional concentrators in 2021. [39] The Heart2Heart program continued supplying essential goods to children and adults with disabilities. [6] Nova Ukraine also supported Ukrainian veterans and soldiers, contributed to the ENGin project for youth language skills [40] and promoted Ukrainian cinema.

Supporting Ukraine during full-scale invasion

Nova Ukraine started expanding its operations in the weeks before Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. It organized street rallies in support of Ukraine [5] [41] [42] [43] in the San Francisco Bay Area, mobilized local diaspora, [27] [28] and provided commentary on developing events to local, [44] [45] national [46] [47] and international [48] [49] media. It launched emergency aid efforts and raised funds in partnership with UNICEF USA. [50] Nova Ukraine used software tools to streamline its operations. [51] To enhance aid delivery, the organization implemented a grants management platform on Salesforce. [52]

By the end of 2024, Nova Ukraine distributed more than $110 million in aid and services in Ukraine during the full-scale invasion, reaching 8 million people. [53] : 3  To manage the scale of its operations, the organization established teams specializing in medical aid, public infrastructure in Ukraine, people support (vulnerable populations, education, culture) and advocacy, each with heavy reliance on unpaid volunteer work. [54]

Programs and initiatives

Nova Ukraine structures its activities around four core pillars, which collectively guide its humanitarian aid, reconstruction, community support, and policy engagement efforts:

Emergency medical aid and basic needs services under Heal and Build have historically accounted for a substantial share of programmatic activity. [55]

Medical work (Heal)

Since February 2022, Nova Ukraine has coordinated with national government, regional authorities, and local hospitals to address shortages of medications, diagnostics, and power-independent devices, while also establishing pain treatment and rehabilitation initiatives for war-injured civilians and veterans. [56] [53] [11]

In 2022, the organization implemented a reactive model to meet critical needs for medications and consumables, filtering multidimensional requests from hospitals into prioritized packages within budget constraints. It sourced equipment from Ukraine and through international procurement.

In March 2022, Nova Ukraine partnered with several Ukrainian organizations, including the Ukrainian Student Association at Stanford, to deliver $3.5 million worth of medical supplies, such as bandages, surgery kits, and pediatric medicines, to Ukraine. The supplies were flown from Seattle to Poland and then transported to Ukraine for distribution by the Ministry of Health. [9] [57] [58] The organization also worked with Unite with Ukraine and the Ukrainian World Congress to purchase 9,000 medical tourniquets. [10]

In 2023, Nova Ukraine responded to emergencies in Ukraine and modernized healthcare facilities in the region. With support from partners like Zdorovi and funding from Pioneer Natural Resources, Nova Ukraine provided modern equipment such as portable incubators and electric generators to 50 neonatal hospitals and clinics, [59] purchased six ambulances and had them delivered through Enkidu. [60]

By 2023, when Russian attacks systematically damaged medical infrastructure and caused frequent power outages, Nova Ukraine provided generators, autonomous lighting systems, and mobile diagnostic devices such as portable ultrasound and X-ray units for frontline and field use. In total, Nova Ukraine’s Heal initiative supported over 600 medical institutions, distributed a million dollars worth of medical packs, delivered more than 2,000 hospital beds and surgical tables, and provided over 47,000 surgical instruments and 37 prostheses for complex amputation patients. [61] : 4  One year after the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, San Francisco Chronicle reported that Nova Ukraine had distributed $55 million in humanitarian aid, more than half of which went to emergency first aid, hospital medicine, supplies, and medical equipment.” [62]

Nova Ukraine signed a two-year Memorandum of Cooperation with the Ministry of Health of Ukraine to provide medical equipment, prosthetics, medications, and rehabilitation programs. [63] Delivered equipment included ventilators, X-ray devices, ultrasound systems, and chemotherapy medicine, in response to numerous hospital requests. [64] [65] [66] Nova Ukraine launched the “Ukraine Without Pain” partnership with the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, aiming to establish a nationwide network of pain treatment centres, train specialists in modern pain medicine protocols, and equip facilities with rehabilitation technologies for chronic pain and post-traumatic recovery. Throughout 2024, the initiative distributed medical equipment and supplies valued at $6 million to over 120 specialized hospitals in collaboration with Medical Bridges and MedGlobal. [53] The organization’s first-aid support in 2024 included the distribution of 7,541 individual first aid kits, 199 pieces of mobile equipment (including ultrasound and defibrillators), 63 generators, 22 operating tables, 155 tactical medicine backpacks for paramedics and combat medics, 43,645 tourniquets, and 65 training mannequins across 10+ training centres. Through Project MedHub, Nova Ukraine assisted more than 13,000 wounded defenders and delivered aid worth $150,000, supporting military medics and medical evacuation units. [53]

In 2025, Nova Ukraine's contributions have been recognized nationally: it received the first place in the “Charity in Healthcare” category at Charitable Ukraine 2024. [11]

Public infrastructure in Ukraine (Build)

In 2022, San Jose Fire Department donated safety and firefighting equipment worth more than $1 million to Ukrainian first responders, to be distributed by relief organizations including Nova Ukraine and Firefighter Air Ukraine. The donation included self-contained breathing apparatus packs, regulators, air cylinders, and masks. [67] [68] Additionally, Nova Ukraine, in collaboration with Firefighter Aid Ukraine, collected over $3 million worth of rescue equipment and medical supplies from Canadian fire stations, which were delivered to State Emergency Service of Ukraine. [69]

In January 2023, Nova Ukraine and Razom were jointly awarded the world record for the largest number of assembled electricity generators (1263) in the shortest time (30 days). [70] In 2023, the Charitable Foundation of the Energy Bar Association announced a $50,000 Cornerstone Grant to Nova Ukraine to fund generators intended for hospitals and warming centers in Ukraine. [71] Working with Nevados, Nova Ukraine helped install solar panels in schools in Chernihiv, so that they remain operational during power outages caused by the 2022 invasion. [72] The organization also partnered with the Ministry of Education to enhance digital education and promote STEM programs across Ukraine. [14] [73]

Nova Stash is Nova Ukraine's network of approximately 20 local volunteer teams that mobilize within hours of Russia's missile strikes and coordinate with Ukraine's State Emergency Services (SES) to deliver generators, food, blankets, and hygiene kits in near-frontline and recently attacked areas. [55]

People support (Empower)

From the beginning of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Nova Ukraine supported evacuation efforts in Ukraine helping people relocate away from the frontlines. [74] [75] Nova Ukraine established a team to support Ukrainian refugees in the U.S., Mexico, and Europe. [76] Volunteers provided aid at refugee camps, helped families apply for humanitarian parole, and offered legal assistance, particularly at border crossings like San Ysidro. [77] [78] [79] [80] The organization also helped refugees find housing in the U.S. and Europe [81] and compiled updates on legal developments. [82] In reporting on Ukrainian refugees arriving in the United States, the Los Angeles Times described Nova Ukraine’s role in assisting displaced individuals and families, including helping connect refugees with local organizations providing housing and employment support. [12]

Following the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam in 2023, Nova Ukraine delivered over 35 tons of food and water to 12,000 flooding victims. The organization also facilitated the evacuation of over 3,700 people and animals and provided essential equipment for first responders. [83] [84]

Since 2023, Nova Ukraine collaborated with the Howard G. Buffett Foundation to establish 30 after-school centers under the "Zmistovno" brand, offering educational resources to children facing challenges due to the war and the COVID-19 pandemic. [85] In partnership with the Howard G. Buffett Foundation and Ukrainian Railways, Nova Ukraine established 96 initial Points of Invincibility that provided shelter, heat, charging stations, and Wi-Fi routers to 1.3 million people in Ukraine. The organization installed a water treatment plant in Kherson and delivered generators to hospitals. [13] [86] [87]

The organization partnered with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development to provide the Okhmatdyt Pediatric Clinic in Kyiv with a pediatric mobility rehabilitation system. [88]

Nova Ukraine has participated in cultural programming that promotes Ukrainian storytelling and media, including co-supporting public events in the United States that featured documentary and narrative presentations related to the war in Ukraine. [89] In 2025, the English-language volume "Living the War: Civilians in the Army" was produced and printed in Ukraine with support from nonprofits including Nova Ukraine, the KSE Foundation, and Protect Ukraine. This project was cited in Ukrainska Pravda as an example of Nova Ukraine’s contribution to cultural diplomacy and public education by amplifying civilian narratives from the Russo-Ukrainian War. [90]

Advocacy (Advocate)

Board Members Korkuna (left) and Markov (middle) at the flag-raising ceremony with Mayor Sam Liccardo at the San Jose City Hall August 24, 2022.

In the weeks before Russia's full-scale invasion, Nova Ukraine organized street rallies in the San Francisco Bay Area to raise awareness of the threat and to mobilize the diaspora. [42] [41] After the invasion, Nova Ukraine continued street rallies, [5] [43] some of which drew attention to American companies still operating in Russia. [91]

Nova Ukraine directors participated in flag-raising ceremonies at the San Francisco City Hall and San Jose City Hall dedicated to the Independence Day of Ukraine (in August) and marking anniversaries of Russian Invasion of Ukraine (in February), [92] [93] as well as Santa Clara City Council meetings and Santa Clara County events. [94]

In 2022, Nova Ukraine became a founding member of the American Coalition for Ukraine to participate in diaspora advocacy networks that aim to influence public understanding and policy debates related to the war. [3] It contributed to shaping the U.S. policy toward Ukraine [95] by co-organizing Ukraine Action Summits in Washington, DC and by engaging mass-media. [96] [16]

In 2023, alongside Razom and other partners, Nova Ukraine hosted a delegation of religious leaders from the All-Ukrainian Council of Churches and Religious Organizations (UCCRO) in Washington, D.C., to raise awareness about the impact of the Russian occupation on religious freedom. [97] [98] [99] [100]

In 2025, Mykola Murskyj, a director of advocacy at Razom noted "We have partnered with Nova Ukraine to place advertisements in the New York Post, which is read closely by President Trump, spotlighting Russia’s abduction of Ukrainian children and the need to arm Ukraine.” [8]

Nova Ukraine’s board director Igor Markov pointed in a statement to measurable results from coordinated diaspora advocacy. "Nova Ukraine's volunteers have been involved in advancing every Ukraine aid bill passed by Congress since 2022," he said. "Our coordination with other Ukrainian-American nonprofits helped secure passage of the National Security package in April 2024, including H.R. 8035 and H.R. 8038, which passed with strong bipartisan support — 311-112 and 360-58 respectively — within a week of the Fourth Ukraine Action Summit." [8]

Structure and governance

The Board of Directors, chaired by Nick Bilogorskiy as of 2024, oversees Nova Ukraine's strategic direction and executive recruitment. [1] The Board is supported by the Advisory Board and an executive leadership team comprising the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Chief Operating Officer (COO), and Chief Development Officer (CDO), along with Vice Presidents and Director for Ukraine who report to the Board. [101] Erin McKee has served as the organization's CEO since August 2025. [2] The leadership also includes team leads, and supports a diverse volunteer base representing a range of cultural and professional backgrounds. [102] [103] The organization primarily conducts its official business in English, while also incorporating the Ukrainian language. Nova Ukraine provides aid both directly and through collaborations with hospitals, local volunteer groups, state services, local authorities, and Ukrainian manufacturing and distribution firms. [5] Additionally, the organization actively engages in political and cultural advocacy in the United States and is a founding member of the American Coalition for Ukraine. [3]

Nova Ukraine is headquartered in Palo Alto, California. [29] Since 2022, it has established volunteer chapters across eight U.S. states (California, Washington, Nevada, Utah, New York, Illinois, Texas) and the District of Columbia. It also opened offices in Ukraine. [104] In 2022, Nova Ukraine increased aid and services, establishing a subsidiary office in Kyiv and expanding operational capabilities with reporting teams and warehouses in multiple Ukrainian cities. [105] In 2022, the organization provided an estimated $55.5 million in humanitarian aid, encompassing food, medical supplies, and other critical resources for affected communities both within Ukraine and among refugees abroad. [15]

Financial performance

Its IRS Form 990 filings accessible through third-party platforms demonstrate Nova Ukraine's status, revenue sources, expenses, assets, and financial management transparency. [1] [21] [106] The organization publishes its financial and impact reports online, [107] detailing expenditures by category and other key metrics.

2020$363,158100%$0$0$79,884$0$0

Nova Ukraine's revenue is primarily drawn from charitable contributions, which comprise nearly all of the organization's income in each fiscal year. Those contributions increased sharply in 2022 after Russian invasion of Ukraine, decreased in 2023 due to donor fatigue [108] but started recovering in 2024. Investment income and other revenue represent small fractions of total revenue. Expenses for salaries have been modest in relation to the large scale of contributions, with salaries such as $114,000 reported for the General Manager in 2023. Total assets have grown substantially from around $151,000 in 2021 to $27.8 million in 2023, but liabilities remain low relative to assets. In financial reporting, it is standard practice for the total funds raised in a period to exceed the total spent because revenue and expenses are recognised at different times under accepted accounting methods; revenue may be recorded when donations are received or pledged while expenses are recorded when incurred, with any surplus carried forward to future periods rather than indicating inefficiency. [109] [110]

According to its financial statements, the organization’s expense ratio has remained below the average for U.S. non-profits, with overhead costs in the low single digits. [1] [107]

Awards and recognition

In March 2022, the National Philanthropic Trust profiled Nova Ukraine. [5] In 2022 [111] and 2023, [112] Nova Ukraine’s co-founder Ostap Korkuna participated in recorded interviews as part of a Charity Navigator review, where he discussed the organization's operations and achievements. As a result, Charity Navigator awarded Nova Ukraine 100% score for leadership and flexibility. In 2024, Charity Navigator granted Nova Ukraine a four-star rating, citing its accountability and financial metrics. [4] In 2025 GuideStar, a non-profit ranking platform managed by Candid, awarded the organization a Platinum Transparency Seal for its financial and operational transparency. [21]

Nova Ukraine has received recognition from Ukrainian and international media and civil society institutions for its fundraising and humanitarian work. In 2014, the organization ranked second among U.S.-based Ukrainian nonprofit organizations in an annual reader survey by Ukrainian Chicago. [113] [114] During the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Forbes Ukraine ranked Nova Ukraine fifth among fundraising leaders supporting Ukrainians in 2022. [115] The organization’s healthcare programming was later recognized in June 2025, when Nova Ukraine received first place in the “Charity in Healthcare” category at the Charitable Ukraine 2024 awards. [11] In August 2025, Focus magazine included Nova Ukraine among the 100 most impactful Ukrainians, ranking it as the fifth-highest charity organization. [15]

Several individual honors have also been awarded to Nova Ukraine’s co-founders in connection with their leadership of the organization. In 2020, Nick Bilogorskiy was ranked 31st on Forbes Ukraine's list of “40 Global Ukrainians.” [116] In 2022, Bilogorskiy received the Order of Merit 3rd class from President Volodymyr Zelensky, [18] and in 2023 the same honor was awarded to co-founder Ostap Korkuna. [19] In November 2025, Bilogorskiy was included in Ukrainska Pravda's annual “UP 100: Power of Influence” ranking, placing second in the Society category. [117] [20]

Scrutiny and challenges

Aid restrictions

Nova Ukraine declined to provide lethal aid to active combatants because major corporate donation platforms require nonprofits to verify their aid does not support active combat. [118] [119] Internal discussions acknowledged the practical difficulty in distinguishing dual-use items like vehicles that serve both civilian and military purposes. [120] Nova Ukraine focused on distributing emergency medical supplies to Ukraine, including tourniquets and first-aid kits for civilians and first responders. It also supported evacuation and provided help to wounded defenders undergoing medical treatment. [56]

Support for Ukrainian refugees in the U.S.

Following the 2022 invasion, Ukrainian refugees arrived at the United States–Mexico border in significant numbers, prompting volunteer networks to provide initial housing, transportation, and guidance until new arrivals were required to secure U.S. sponsors under the Uniting for Ukraine program. [77] As federal pathways narrowed, organizations assisting refugees faced challenges maintaining support efforts and helping displaced Ukrainians establish longer-term stability. In Southern California, community initiatives provided temporary housing and access to basic services for newly arrived families. [121] Independent reporting also noted broader difficulties for refugees seeking employment, housing, and community ties as federal programs for new entrants were scaled back. [12]

San Jose's sister-city relationship with Ekaterinburg

In the Spring of 2022, Nova Ukraine founder Nick Bilogorskiy publicly urged the San Jose City Council to terminate the city’s sister-city relationship with Ekaterinburg, Russia, arguing that maintaining the relationship was inappropriate given Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Local media reported Bilogorskiy describing the continued tie as “shameful and disgusting,” which was part of broader debates among local officials and community members about symbolic gestures of solidarity with Ukraine. [122] Following public debate in San José, the San José City Council voted to retain the relationship while issuing a letter expressing peace and support for residents of Ekaterinburg. [122] [123]


Donor fatigue and recovery

In mid-2022, Nick Bilogorskiy, co-chair of Nova Ukraine, stated that while donations had been strong at the outset of the war, contributions had “trickled down” about 70 days after the invasion began, indicating waning donor engagement as the conflict continued. [108] By late 2023, broader reporting on Ukraine’s aid context also described donor fatigue among international partners as the prolonged conflict strained attention and financial support, with analysts observing rising “tiredness” among donors. [124] Nova responded by hiring a Chief Development Officer and its IRS Form 990 filings indicate that charitable contributions have increased from 2023 to 2024. [1]

Destroyed medical aid warehouse

In November 2025, Ukrainian media broadly reported that during a large Russian missile and drone attack on Lviv, one of Nova Ukraine’s medical aid warehouses in the city was destroyed on November 19. [125] [126] [127] The transit facility, which stored medical supplies and equipment intended to support more than 600 hospitals and clinics across Ukraine, was hit on 19 November 2025, resulting in the loss of significant humanitarian aid, though no Nova Ukraine personnel were reported injured. [128] Representatives of the organization characterized the destruction as a "severe blow" to medical logistics and emphasized efforts to redistribute and replace lost supplies to maintain ongoing support for healthcare facilities. [129] The destroyed warehouse illustrated operational vulnerabilities of supply chains in Ukraine, where transit facilities are targeted by russian strikes. The affected organizations continued operations by using redundant facilities. [130]

Media scrutiny

Local and international media provided coverage of Nova Ukraine's humanitarian operations. Media organizations examined various aspects of Nova Ukraine's operations and leadership, exploring potential concerns, but did not identify serious deficiencies.

In the San Francisco Bay Area, NPR/KQED hosted Nova Ukraine leaders for live discussions to answer questions about their operations. [44] [45] Seattle Times [57] and NBC Right Now [58] reported on the medical supply airlift from Seattle Tacoma Airport to Poland in March 2022. The San Diego Union Tribune and Del Mar Times covered refugee support across the Mexico border crossing. [80] [79] The Wall Street Journal examined how Nova Ukraine assisted refugees with housing and legal challenges. [81] [82] The Los Angeles Times reviewed Nova Ukraine's work with faith-based and community groups in Southern California to help place Ukrainian refugees in temporary shelter and sponsor families after their arrival. [121] [131]

Among international news agencies, United24 Media explored how Nova Ukraine's secular status impacted its ability to partner with religious communities. To this extent, it noted that the organization partnered with both secular and religious organizations to distribute aid and coordinate advocacy in the U.S. Having funded humanitarian projects through Protestant, Evangelical, Orthodox, and Greek-Catholic churches and institutions, allowed Nova Ukraine to deliver aid efficiently through trusted local partners regardless of religious affiliation. [8] The Central News Agency (Taiwan) reported on street rallies organized by Nova Ukraine in February 2022. [43] In a live interview with Nova Ukraine's board director Igor Markov, CNN International reviewed the organization's role in evacuations from beseiged Mariupol and examined operational challenges such as the dangers of shuttle buses crossing the front lines, maintaining an appropriate vehicle fleet, and ensuring operational security. [48] A second CNN interview with Markov examined Nova Ukraine's programs, expenditures, and fundraising dynamics. [49] Helsingin Sanomat examined Nova Ukraine's use of technology and profiled its directors, focusing on their connections to Ukraine, professional background, and level of commitment. [51] Voice of America Ukrainian produced a television program documenting Nova Ukraine's early history and impact. [28] [27]

Scholarly perspectives

A 2024 article in the journal European Societies analyzes Nova Ukraine together with several other Ukrainian-American nonprofits as part of a network that constructs diasporic Ukrainian identity in the United States. It describes their role as developing narratives that emphasize Ukrainian agency, democratic values and global security concerns, while mobilizing supporters to lobby Western institutions. [3]
