Starmer encouraged by Ukraine peace progress
Western Daily Press
|November 26, 2025
SIR Keir Starmer has said talks on a potential ceasefire in Ukraine were “moving in a positive direction’ after he spoke to leaders of the war-torn nation’s allies.
The Prime Minister led a call with leaders of the so-called ‘coalition of the willing’ yesterday, after talks between Ukraine and the United States in Switzerland last weekend appeared to raise hopes of a path to peace.
Addressing a virtual meeting of coalition members from the Cabinet room in 10 Downing Street, Sir Keir said of the latest talks: “Progress was made and I welcome some of the developments that have now come forward.
“It was a chance to ensure that the draft plan fully reflects Ukraine’s interests and lays the ground for a lasting peace.”
Sir Keir added that Ukraine had “proposed some constructive changes’ supported by European national security advisers.
