Prince Hhavey has delivered a speech aimed directly at Russian President Vladimir Putin, urging him to "stop this war" against Ukraine. He condemned the Kremlin's bloody tactics in the war, which has included the forcible transfer of children to Russia, accusing the leader of committing war crimes.
Speaking directly to the Russian leader, the King's youngest son says: "President Putin, no nation benefits from the continued loss of life we are witnessing. There is still a moment - now - to stop this war, to prevent further suffering for Ukrainians and Russians alike, and to choose a different course.
"Years into this war, with immense losses and limited gains, it is increasingly clear that this path offers no victory—only more loss. The cost continues to rise—with no outcome that justifies the human toll."
Harry also called to another world leader, US President Donald Trump, to intervene and help put an end to the war once and for all.
"This is a moment for American leadership – a moment for America to show that it can honour its international treaty obligations," he said, in a speech to the Kyiv Security Forum on Thursday. “Not out of charity, but out of its enduring role in global security and strategic stability.”
The Duke of Sussex arrived in Kyiv this morning, stepping off an overnight train from Poland and greeting people.
Throwing his support behind Ukraine in his speech to world leaders and high-ranking commanders, Harry said: "To those defending this country. To those holding families, communities, and institutions together under extraordinary strain. The world sees you. And the world respects you."
