On April 23, 2025, a meeting between Ukrainian and British ministers took place in London. The Ukrainian delegation included Andriy Yermak, Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Minister of Foreign Affairs Andriy Sibiga, and Minister of Defense Rustem Umerov. They engaged with their British counterparts to discuss security matters and global stability.
According to Andriy Sibiga, a key focus of the meeting was cooperation between the ministries of foreign affairs and defense of Ukraine and Great Britain, with security and stability as primary topics. The meeting also aimed to strengthen long-term peace and security.
Notably, a broader meeting involving representatives from Ukraine, Britain, the USA, France, and Germany was also scheduled in London to discuss a potential ceasefire. However, this meeting was downgraded to senior officials after US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and other foreign ministers canceled their attendance. Despite these changes, discussions on achieving a comprehensive settlement and a just and lasting peace are underway.
