Donald Trump has been branded "Putin's puppet" in a banner held by a protester during a march in support of Ukraine in London.
Thousands of protesters marched on the Russian embassy in the capital while calling on the international community not to "betray Ukraine" amid fears the country is being frozen out of peace talks between Moscow and Trump. A coalition of Ukrainian community and UK-based labour organisations attended the rally on Saturday calling for Russian troops to withdraw, ahead of the third anniversary of Putin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
In a joint statement, the organisers of Saturday's march said Ukraine has been made vulnerable by not being provided with enough aid to defeat Russia and is being "expected to consign its own citizens to occupation under a deal imposed by Trump". They added that they were calling for "renewed solidarity, that peace must come with the full withdrawal of Russian forces" as well as for a "surge in military aid to strengthen Ukraine in any negotiations and be able to finally end the occupation if no just agreement is secured".
Protesters at the march carried placards saying "Occupation is not Peace" and "Don't Betray Ukraine" behind a banner calling for "Russian Troops Out". The marchers, led by Ukrainian singers from the Hromada choir, assembled at a statue of St Volodymyr, a national saint of Ukraine, near Holland Park.
They then marched from the statue, erected in 1988 to commemorate the 1,000th anniversary of the Christianisation of Ukraine, to the Russian embassy at Kensington Palace Gardens. Olena Ivashchenko, director of Campaign for Ukraine, said Kyiv's future was "being decided by politicians behind closed doors” and that "true and sustainable peace cannot be achieved without justice".

“Thousands of protesters marched on the Russian embassy in the capital while calling on the international community not to “betray Ukraine””
sounds like the UK MoD should set up a recruiting tent there and sign ‘em all up; let ‘em march in the UK army instead of in front of the russkie embassy, you know, to keep from “betraying” Ukraine ...
These are mostly agitators paid by with Soros money.
Most couldn’t find Ukraine on a map.
Great news protesters! You can really troll Trump by flying over to Ukraine and seeing the sights of the south east. Pick up a gun and double your fun! Join Zelensky’s war campaign today.
How many of the thousands were paid?
