British Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced on Sunday that the United Kingdom, France "and other European countries", together with Kiev, will present Donald Trump with a peace plan in the coming days to try to convince him that the United States will ultimately provide security guarantees that will allow for a "lasting peace" in Ukraine.

Europe jumps through the hoop of a Donald Trump more aligned with Moscow than with Kiev. The leaders of more than fifteen countries met in London on Sunday to build a strategy to support Ukraine that would lead to a lasting peace and, in an attempt to involve the United States, they promised a significant increase in the defense budget and to present a plan to President Trump. Without the "accelerated and massive rearmament of the continent" that the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, has spoken of, there is practically no chance of obtaining the "security guarantees" that Volodymyr Zelensky is asking for with the support of the United States.
