The intensive sessions, which convened over 200 military planners from countries across the globe, considered in detail the structure of any future force to ensure Ukraine can defend itself from future Russian aggression.
Planning so far has looked across the full range of European military capabilities including aircraft, tanks, troops, intelligence and logistics capabilities – and discussions have centred on how European nations can contribute their own capabilities to support any future force, - said in statement of gov.uk. Discussions will continue around military planning of air, sea and land forces that would be required to support a just and lasting peace in Ukraine.
Prime Minister expected to say: "Unlike President Zelenskyy, Putin has shown he’s not a serious player in these peace talks.

His promises are hollow," - the statement reads citing UK Prime Minister Starmer.
The US is playing a leading role by convening the ceasefire talks, while Europe is stepping up to play its part to defend Ukraine’s future.
