STORYLINE:
French President Emmanuel Macron joined a video conference meeting of global leaders, organized by UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, to discuss the developments regarding the war in Ukraine.
Unlike a previous summit on March 2, the meeting Saturday of what Starmer has termed the “coalition of the willing” conducted virtually.
The call is expected to delve into how countries can help Ukraine militarily and financially as well as gauging support for any future possible peacekeeping mission.
Saturday’s meeting takes place in the wake of a U.S. proposal for a 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine, which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyyhas backed.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has indicated that he supported a truce in principle but has set out a host of details that need to be clarified before agreeing to a ceasefire.
Starmer’s office said around 25 countries will be involved in the call, including European partners and Ukraine.
Like last time, there will be no representative from the United States, which has shifted its approach on the war since the return of President Donald Trump to the White House.
