According to the British government's website, Starmer, Zelenskyy and Macron "began by reflecting on the intensive diplomacy that had been done in recent days, including by the Ukrainian delegation currently in the United States." Starmer also spoke about his recent talks, including with the NATO Secretary General on Sunday, "and the leaders agreed on the importance of working towards a deal that delivered long term security and a just peace for Ukraine."
