Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived at 10 Downing St. in London on Thursday for talks with the leaders of Britain and NATO on his “victory plan” for the war against Russia. Zelensky met Prime Minister Keir Starmer and NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, before traveling to Paris for talks with President Emmanuel Macron.


Starmer said the Downing Street meetings, also attended by UK Defense Secretary John Healey and armed forces chief Adm. Tony Radakin, were a chance to “go through the plan in detail.” Zelensky is to meet German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Berlin on Friday and will also travel to Italy to discuss the plan.

Some of the women claim they were misled that it would be a work-study program, describing long hours under constant surveillance, broken promises about wages and areas of study, and working with caustic chemicals that left their skin pockmarked and itching. Facing a wartime labor shortage, Russia has been recruiting from African countries.
