Sir Keir Starmer is now in discussions with over a dozen international leaders invited to London on Sunday for a summit aimed at reviving hopes for a just peace in Ukraine.

Leaders of Ukraine, France, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Canada, Finland, Sweden, the Czech Republic and Romania, as well as the Turkish Foreign Minister, have now arrived in central London’s Lancaster House.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, European Council President Antonio Costa, and NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte are also at the table in London.

Ahead of the summit, Starmer said the UK and France will take the lead in drafting a proposed ceasefire plan with Ukraine to be presented to US President Donald Trump.

He has previously expressed willingness to send British troops as part of a peacekeeping force in Ukraine, but wants US military backing in the form of a ‘backstop’ should Russia break the terms of the ceasefire. But he failed to secure such American assurances during his visit to the White House on Thursday.
