Starmer expects rapid developments
The British Prime Minister has officially confirmed that an intensive stage of negotiations is currently underway.
Against this background, he recalled that it is Ukraine that should resolve these issues, and not other people who should decide something on behalf of Ukraine.
This is for Ukraine to decide. And Russia must sit at the negotiating table for an unconditional ceasefire.

Prime Minister of Britain
He hopes that a ceasefire will be achieved by the summer.
In addition, Starmer reiterated his call for US security guarantees for British and other Western forces planning to deploy to Ukraine to monitor peacekeeping.
It has to be a ceasefire on terms that all parties can accept, including Ukraine, and it has to be a lasting ceasefire. What I don't want to see is a temporary ceasefire.
