UK, France, Ukraine Propose Ukraine Ceasefire Plan; US Involvement Questioned
Britain, France, and Ukraine are collaborating on a ceasefire plan to present to the United States, aiming to restore peace talks and prevent further Russian aggression. This initiative, spearheaded by Prime Minister Starmer, involves a three-pronged approach: arming Ukraine, securing a European-led security guarantee, and establishing a U.S. backstop to ensure lasting peace. A significant London summit brought together European leaders to solidify support for Ukraine and increase defense spending in response to recent U.S. policy shifts. The success of this plan hinges on the cooperation of all parties involved to establish a sustainable peace agreement.
