STORYLINE:
The leaders of France, Germany and the UK met on Friday aboard a train travelling from Poland to Ukraine.
Footage showed French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer sitting down for a meeting on the train.
The three will be in Kyiv on Saturday as calls intensify for Russia to agree a ceasefire and come to the negotiating table.
Macron, Merz, Starmer and Prime Minister Donald Tusk are expected to meet President Zelenskyy in Kyiv on Saturday morning, underlining their steadfast commitment to Ukraine.
The historic visit, which is the first time the leaders of the four countries have travelled together to Ukraine – and Chancellor Merz’ first visit to Ukraine as Germany’s new Chancellor – comes as they and President Trump call for Russia to agree to a 30-day ceasefire to allow for unfettered peace talks.
