UK prime minister Keir Starmer has said he’s eager to sustain the momentum of Ukraine peace talks as he spoke with Donald Trump, Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European leaders earlier today.

A Downing Street spokesperson said:

The discussion focused on ongoing efforts to secure a just and lasting peace in Ukraine, with leaders commending President Trump for the progress achieved so far.

They underlined the importance of robust security guarantees and reaffirmed the urgency of ending this barbaric war as soon as possible.

The Prime Minister emphasised the UK’s commitment to working closely with partners to sustain momentum in the coming days - with President Trump highlighting his leadership in driving coordinated international support for Ukraine as talks continue.
