British Prime Minister Keir Starmer urged world leaders to be ready to defend any Ukraine peace deal, stressing the need to maintain pressure on Russia. Speaking to 25 leaders, he called for an immediate ceasefire, as diplomatic efforts continue amid ongoing tensions and Russian demands.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer told a virtual meeting of about 25 world leaders on Saturday (March 15) that they had to be prepared to defend any Ukraine peace deal themselves, urging them to keep up pressure on Russia.
"If (Russian President Vladimir) Putin is serious about peace, it's very simple, he has to stop his barbaric attacks on Ukraine and agree to a ceasefire," Starmer told the video call of leaders from nations, including from Europe, Australia, Canada and New Zealand.
"My feeling is that sooner or later, he's going to have to come to the table and engage in serious discussion," Starmer said.
The call builds on a flurry of diplomacy between European and other Western countries to find ways to help Ukraine after U.S. President Donald Trump upended Washington's supportive approach and launched peace talks with Russia.
On Thursday, Putin said Russia supported a U.S. proposal for a ceasefire in principle but that fighting could not be paused until a number of conditions were met.
He has said he wanted Ukraine to drop its ambitions to join NATO, Russia to control the entirety of the four Ukrainian regions it has claimed as its own, and the size of the Ukrainian army to be limited - demands rejected by Kyiv.
