The London Summit on Ukraine brought together 18 heads of state and government, along with leaders of international institutions.

Participants in the discussions included: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Italian President of the Council of Ministers Giorgia Meloni, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala, Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, European Council President António Costa, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, Acting President of Romania Ilie Bolojan, and Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan.

The leaders discussed continued financial support for Ukraine’s defense industry, including investments in domestic arms production, as well as increased funding for Europe's defense sector.

Sanctions against Russia, including frozen Russian assets, will remain in place until a lasting peace is achieved.

Additionally, there is a clear consensus that strong security guarantees must be the foundation of any potential ceasefire. In particular, the possibility of leveraging the mechanisms of the North Atlantic Treaty as one of the security guarantees and strengthening the Ukrainian army is being considered.

The ceasefire must begin with the exchange of prisoners and the return of children. This would be a step to demonstrate Russia’s genuine intent for peace.

The leaders also discussed the importance of the U.S. role in ensuring sufficient support and cooperation to end the war and maintain transatlantic unity.

A concrete plan, based on proposals from France and the United Kingdom, will continue to be developed.
