European defence leaders yesterday vowed to tighten sanctions on Russia after a missile barrage on Kyiv killed 23 and left a diplomatic compound badly damaged.
The attack saw two missiles land just 50 yards from the EU mission in the Ukrainian capital, shattering doors and windows.
It also damaged the British Council's headquarters nearby, resulting in the Russian ambassador being summoned to the Foreign Office.
Yesterday, French president Emmanuel Macron said Vladimir Putin will have 'played' Donald Trump if he refuses to meet Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky as agreed.
He added that the EU would push for new 'primary and secondary sanctions' to pressure Moscow, and indicated both he and German chancellor Friedrich Merz could speak with Trump at the weekend.
