Over in Ukraine, several people who spoke to the BBC said they were more focused on everyday problems, rather than following Zelensky’s trip to the UK.<\/p>\n
Yana Kolomiets, from Odesa, said there was a lack of electricity, heating and water in the southern city.<\/p>\n
“The more scary thing is that the Russians started launching guided bombs on our region,” she added.<\/p>\n
Tetiana Dankevych, from the capital Kyiv, said power outages and a problems with water supplies caused by Russian strikes were making life “very difficult”.<\/p>\n
“I don’t have a feeling this war will end soon,” she said.<\/p>\n
Further support for Ukraine’s energy infrastructure was among the issues discussed at the London summit – however, no specific announcements were made.<\/p>\n
Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof and Nato Secretary General Mark Rutte also took part in the London meeting, while other leaders – including French President Emmanuel Macron – participated via a video link.<\/p>\n
Ukraine and its Western allies have publicly agreed with President Trump’s proposal that the fighting should be immediately frozen along the vast front line for negotiations to begin.<\/p>\n
Russia has rejected this idea, repeating demands that Kyiv and its allies describe as de facto capitulation by Ukraine.<\/p>\n
Earlier on Friday, Zelensky held talks with King Charles at Windsor – their third meeting this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Over in Ukraine, several people who spoke to the BBC said they were more focused on everyday problems,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":223391,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-223390","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223390","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=223390"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223390\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/223391"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=223390"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=223390"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=223390"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
