UK backs Trump’s push for Ukraine peace, says Russia could end war now

LONDON (Reuters) -Britain said it shares U.S. President Donald Trump’s goal of ending the war in Ukraine and urged Russia to withdraw its forces, after Reuters reported that Washington has pressed Kyiv to accept a U.S.-drafted peace framework.

The draft proposes Ukraine give up territory and some weapons.

“Russia could do this tomorrow by withdrawing its forces and ending its illegal invasion,” a spokesperson for Britain’s Foreign Office said, adding that London “shares President Trump’s desire to bring this barbaric war to an end.”
