LONDON (AP) — British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is convening a meeting of global leaders to discuss the developments regarding the war in Ukraine, following another frantic week of diplomacy aimed at getting Russia to back a 30-day ceasefire. Unlike a previous summit on March 2, the meeting Saturday of what Starmer has termed the “coalition of the willing” will be 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. Starmer’s office said around 25 countries will be involved in the call, including European partners and Ukraine.
