Over a dozen European leaders are set to gather in London this Sunday for critical crisis talks aimed at enhancing security cooperation and reinforcing support for Ukraine amidst ongoing tensions with Russia. This summit comes in the wake of a surprising fallout between Kyiv and Washington, raising concerns among Ukraine's allies about the commitment of U.S. President Donald Trump in negotiations with Moscow.
In a show of solidarity, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy received a warm welcome at Downing Street on Saturday. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer embraced Zelenskyy and announced a substantial $3.3 billion loan dedicated to Ukrainian military supplies, signaling unwavering support.
\"We are happy to have such strategic partners and to share the same vision of what a secure future should look like for all,\" Zelenskyy remarked. The Ukrainian leader is also scheduled to meet King Charles III at Sandringham estate in Norfolk before participating in Sunday's security summit, further highlighting the deepened ties and collective effort to ensure stability in the region.
