The Kremlin claims the London summit's pledges to Ukraine won't foster peace, urging Zelenskiy to change his stance. A $2 billion missile deal was announced.
MOSCOW (Reuters) - The Kremlin said on Monday that pledges made by European leaders at a London summit on Ukraine over the weekend to increase funding to Kyiv will not help bring about a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy met with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other Western leaders on Sunday, where they agreed to draw up a Ukraine peace plan to present to the United States two days after Zelenskiy clashed with President Donald Trump at the White House.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the results of the summit - including a $2 billion air-defence missiles deal from Britain - will allow hostilities to continue, adding it was critical that Zelenskiy be forced to change his position and seek peace.
