Britain fears peace talks between Russia and Ukraine are “smoke and mirrors” and the war could still spread west, Foreign Secretary Liz Truss declared today.
Hopes of a breakthrough rose after Ukraine ’s President Volodymyr Zelensky admitted the door had closed for his country to join NATO, and said negotiations were getting more “realistic”.
But Ms Truss said she was “sceptical” about peace while Vladimir Putin was waging war on Ukraine.
