He recalled that yesterday, he met with the Ukrainian president and spoke with Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron, “and my driving purpose is being to bridge this, if you like, and get us back to the central focus”.
“We’ve now agreed that the United Kingdom, along with France and possibly one or two others, will work with Ukraine on a plan to stop the fighting, and then we will discuss that plan with the United States,” Starmer announced.
He stressed that “it’s really important that we keep our central focus, which is lasting peace in Ukraine”.
