Johnson convenes summit to discuss restoration of Ukraine

The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom will host Nordic and Baltic leaders next week to discuss European security amid Russian aggression.

A relevant announcement was published on the website of the British government.

As noted, the Prime Minister will host the leaders of the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF), a northern European security coalition, bringing together representatives from Denmark, Finland, Estonia, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Sweden and Norway. They will discuss the immediate crisis in Ukraine but also long-term energy security and how they can help Ukraine rebuild again after war.

Earlier, Johnson said that an analogue of the Marshall Plan would be developed for the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine.

On February 24, Russian president Putin declared war on Ukraine and launched a large-scale invasion. Russian troops shell and destroy infrastructure, conduct massive shelling of residential areas of Ukrainian cities and towns using artillery, MLRS, and ballistic missiles.

Martial law was imposed in Ukraine and general mobilization was announced.
