UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer pleaded with the world on Saturday ( local time ) to “push maximum pressure” on Russia, blaming Vladmir Putin’s “unacceptable” response to the US-proposed 30-day ceasefire.
Starmer said that Russia’s “yes but” is insufficient, referring to a virtual meeting of the” partnership of willing,” a group of European countries that have pledged to support Ukraine’s defense against Russia.
” I believe it is crucial that we put the most pressure on Russia in terms of its location. This “yes but” is insufficient, and that’s why the social outcome this morning was to put stress on Russia, and we can do that as well,” Starmer said.
Starmer added that debate should be held on a long-lasting harmony supported by robust surveillance plans.
Our safety up here in the United Kingdom is undermined by Russia’s taste for turmoil and chaos. It raises the cost of living and energy costs, but the UK is deeply concerned about this. The moment is right to start discussions on a mechanism to maintain and monitor a whole ceasefire and consent to serious negotiations involving a coalition of willing participants in robust security arrangements, Starmer said.
Starmer also made it clear that the supporters of Ukraine will hold a meeting on Thursday in the UK to “put strong and robust plans in place to jump in behind a peace deal.”
Our military may join on Thursday in the UK to put together strong and robust plans to veer toward a peace agreement. According to Starmer, this is the time to keep working toward the results we want to see put an end to the shooting, a just and lasting serenity in Ukraine, and for everyone to have security,”
Putin has continued to demand more requires despite offering a 30-day, absolute cease-fire from Ukraine and the US. The Russian leader made it clear that he wanted any peace agreement to require that Ukraine send its men to retreat.
Putin said at a press conference, repeating the Kremlin’s past assertions that the recent Russian state is a part of the main problem,” We agree with the proposal to stop hostilities but we have to bear in mind that this peace must be aimed at a long-lasting peace and it must look at the main causes of the crisis.”
