Starmer hosts European leaders to discuss Ukraine's future

Sir Keir Starmer will host European leaders at Downing Street this weekend to discuss Ukraine's future. This follows a tense exchange between U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House. The meeting aims to address how to implement a future peace deal for Ukraine, but hopes for U.S.-European unity have been strained after the clash. Plans for a minerals agreement and continued U.S. military support were also put on hold. European leaders, including Emmanuel Macron and Olaf Scholz, will join the talks to support Ukraine. The UK seeks to enhance military support and apply more economic pressure on Russia amid ongoing tensions.
