The UK and France have signed a declaration of intent on deploying troops in Ukraine if a peace deal is made with Russia, UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has announced. After talks with Ukraine's allies in Paris, he said the UK and France would "establish military hubs across Ukraine" to deter future invasion, while French President Emmanuel Macron later said thousands of troops may be deployed.
Main Idea: The UK and France say they could send troops to Ukraine after any peace deal with Russia, as part of new security guarantees for a future ceasefire.
Key Points:
US households and businesses could face higher prices if the war drags on or if US support for Ukraine grows.
A stronger peace deal could reduce the risk of a wider war in Europe and help stabilize markets.
