London: The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Keir Starmer, said that Russian President Vladimir Putin will eventually have to negotiate, since he urged world leaders at a virtual summit to intensify the support of Ukraine and maintain pressure on Moscow.
The British leader told about 26 leader partners in a group call that he organized that they should focus on strengthening Ukraine, protecting any high fire and maintaining pressure on Moscow.
The president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, said, said, “was once again, and beyond any doubt, that Ukraine is the peace group” by accepting a high the unconditional fire of 30 days.
“But Putin is trying to delay, declare that there must be a thorough study before a fire can take place,” he added.
And he insisted: “Sooner or later, Putin will have to come to the table.”
The military bosses will meet again Thursday in the United Kingdom as the coalition goes to the operational phase, he added.
“The group that met this morning is a larger group than two weeks ago, there is a stronger collective resolution and new commitments on the table were put this morning,” he said.
Diplomatic pressure on Russia
The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, warned that Russia aimed to win a “stronger position” militarily ahead of any high fire, more than three years since he invaded his country.
“They want to improve their situation on the battlefield,” Zelensky told journalists in kyiv.
The proposal of Alto The fire of the Trump team occurs when Russia has the advantage in several areas along the Ukraine front.
The Russian leader did not commit to a high the immediate fire proposed by the USA., Instead, establishing conditions.
But Zelensky insisted that Putin was “lying on how a high fire is supposedly too complicated.”
The French president, Emmanuel Macron, requested the American and European joint pressure on Russia on Saturday to accept the proposed fire.
The president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said in a message about X that Russia must show “is willing to support a high fire that leads to a fair and lasting peace.”
The Secretary of State of the United States, Marco Rubio, said Friday that he was “cautiously optimistic” about reaching a truce, but that much more work was needed.
The fighting during the night continued, with Russia claiming that he had taken two more villages in his border region of Kursk, where he has launched an offensive to recover seized territory.
Moscow has pressed this week to resume a large part of the land that Ukraine originally captured in western Kursk.
The Russian Ministry of Defense said the troops had taken control of the villages of Zaleshenka and Rubanshchina, the north and west of the city of Sudzha, the main city that Moscow recovered this week.
'Stop violence'

Starmer and Macron have led efforts to gather a call “coalition of the provisions” since Trump opened direct negotiations with Moscow last month.
They argue that the group is necessary, together with the support of the United States, to provide Ukraine for security guarantees by deter Putin to violate any fire.
Starmer and Macron have said that they are willing to put British and French troops on the field in Ukraine, although it is not clear if other countries are prepared to do the same.
Russia, earlier this week, rejected the idea that foreign troops act as peace forces in Ukraine.
But Macron said Saturday: “If Ukraine asks allied forces to be in their territory, it does not depend on Russia accept or not.”
Starmer has said that he appreciates any supply of support for the coalition, which increases the possibility that some countries can contribute to logistics or surveillance.
However, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni reiterated after the call that “Italy's participation in a possible military force in the field is not expected.”
The president of the United States, Donald Trump, appointed Keith Kellogg on Saturday as a special envoy of Ukraine.
Former National Security Advisor during Trump's first mandate, Kellogg had been previously described as a special envoy for both Ukraine and Russia.
However, it was excluded from the recent conversations in Saudi Arabia to end the war, with NBC News in the United States citing a senior Russian official who said that Putin considered it too much to the Ukraine.
