London Eu Summit Produces No Result, No Plan for Ukraine War
Influential Russian parliamentarians have dismissed a summit of European leaders in London as producing no plan to settle the war in Ukraine. The meeting, hosted by British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, aimed to draw up a Ukraine peace plan, but resulted in little concrete progress. Konstantin Kosachev, deputy chairman of the Federation Council, described the outcome as "a desperate attempt to pass off as success the failure of a 10-year policy of inciting Ukraine towards Russia."
- The dismissive tone from Russian parliamentarians raises questions about the sincerity of their commitment to finding a peaceful solution to the conflict in Ukraine, and whether external pressure is driving their stance.
- What role do international coalitions like the one proposed by Starmer play in facilitating dialogue between warring parties, and can they effectively bridge the divide between competing interests?
