Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says a deal to end the war between Ukraine and Russia “is still very, very far away."

The meeting has been overshadowed by the extraordinary scolding of Ukrainian President Volodymyr by President Trump at the White House.

But Trump has given no indication he is prepared to offer assistance to ensure any agreement holds. European promises to re-arm — the president has been telling the continent to stop freeriding on US guarantees for the best part of a decade — may have come too late.

Keir Starmer's call for European allies to increase their arms spending was not a sign that he thought the U.S. had become an unreliable ally, he said.

The Prime Minister said that getting a good outcome for Ukraine is ‘vital to the security of every nation’ at the summit ‘and many others too’.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky joined leaders from Europe, Turkey and Canada in London on Sunday for a summit on the war in Ukraine and European security hosted by UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

Sir Keir Starmer has announced a £1.6bn missile deal for Ukraine, following a summit of European leaders in London. The prime minister also announced "a number" of allies had signed up to a "coalition of the willing", alongside France's President Emmanuel Macron, prepared to commit troops to the Ukrainian frontline in the event of a peace deal.

The announcement comes following Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's Oval Office clash with U.S. President Donald Trump.

European Union leaders plan to hold emergency talks to agree ways to quickly increase their military budgets after the Trump administration signaled Europe must take care of its own security and also suspended assistance to Ukraine.
