The UK government has rejected Russian President Vladimir Putin's demand for Ukraine's allies to halt arms supplies to Kyiv during a potential ceasefire, stated Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s spokesperson, Dave Pares, Bloomberg reports.
When asked whether the UK might agree to Russia's demands to stop military aid to Ukraine, Pares assured that the country "will always continue to support Ukraine militarily."
He emphasized that this applies "in all scenarios".
Putin's demands
Russian leader Vladimir Putin agreed to a 30-day moratorium on strikes on Ukraine's energy infrastructure in a conversation with US President Donald Trump.
At the same time, Putin did not accept the US proposal for a full 30-day ceasefire, according to the Kremlin's statements.
Instead, the Russian President named the conditions under which a cessation of hostilities could take place. He demands an end to mobilization in Ukraine and the provision of military aid and intelligence support.
