UK and EU to Send Joint Delegation to Ukraine Peace Talks

The UK and the European Union will form a joint delegation for Ukraine peace talks, after the US suggested sending only one European representative. The decision aims to prevent Europe from being sidelined in ceasefire negotiations. European Council President Antonio Costa announced the delegation will include EU diplomats and representatives from Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Poland. He stressed Europe must speak with a unified voice on matters affecting the continent's security, calling it a team effort. The move follows European concerns about marginalization in US-led talks. Russia has resisted direct European participation, while internal divisions persist over who should represent Europe, with EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas facing mixed support for her candidacy.
