UK, France, and Ukraine plan ceasefire for conflict
The UK, France, and Ukraine have agreed to develop a ceasefire plan for the Russia-Ukraine war, which will be presented to the United States. This comes as British Prime Minister Keir Starmer hosts a summit of European leaders. The summit will also discuss creating a European military force to support the ceasefire. Starmer emphasized the need for a lasting peace agreement that can be defended, amid concerns about Russian President Vladimir Putin's intentions. European leaders are responding to recent tensions, including U.S. President Donald Trump's comments about Ukraine. Starmer and other leaders are advocating for increased military spending to strengthen Europe's defense capabilities.
