During a meeting at Downing Street, UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, French President Emmanuel Macron, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz discussed the urgent need for an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine following recent Russian missile attacks. The leaders condemned the large-scale assaults, including the use of Oreshnik missiles, which have caused significant civilian casualties. They called for increased military support for Ukraine and emphasized the need to ramp up production of defensive weapons and deep-strike capabilities. Additionally, they addressed the recent strike on a nuclear fuel storage facility near Chernobyl, which has raised alarm from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Zelenskiy described the attack as “extremely vile,” although radiation levels remain normal. The leaders plan to leverage upcoming international summits to coordinate further support for Ukraine and pressure Russia's war economy. Amid these discussions, Ukraine conducted drone strikes on St Petersburg, coinciding with Putin's rejection of Zelenskiy's proposal for peace talks, highlighting the ongoing tensions between the two nations.
