European leaders have met in London in support of Ukraine and President Volodymyr Zelensky following his confrontational encounter with Donald Trump at the White House at the weekend.

British PM Keir Starmer hosted the summit, saying leaders had agreed to draw up a Ukraine peace plan to take to the US - he described it as a "moment to act".
