Ukraine: Ceasefire right now makes no sense, says UK
PM Rishi Sunak

The UK has described a possible ceasefire in Ukraine as meaningless.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak stated that there can be no successful ceasefire at a time when Russian troops are still active in territories considered to be Ukrainian.

Moscow's call for a ceasefire makes no sense, he said, noting that it would be a false call used by Russia to regroup and reinforce its troops.

Sunak was quoted by his office as saying in a meeting with his Joint Expeditionary Force counterparts that there can be no real negotiation until Moscow withdraws from conquered territory.
