The future of Ukraine and any British role in a peacekeeping force feature heavily on the front pages of Wednesday’s newspapers.

The UK could send Typhoon fighter jets to help provide security in Ukraine, reducing the need for any troops on the ground, according to The Times.

The i says the UK is on a “collision course” with Russia over peacekeeping talks, The Independent covering similar ground as it says Russian President Vladimir Putin would not allow UK troops in Ukraine.

The Daily Telegraph says Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will be forced to hold elections under a provisional agreement discussed by US and Russian officials.

The talks in Saudi Arabia feature on the front of the Financial Times, which says the two countries have agreed to “lay the groundwork” for the end of the war.

The Guardian says the two countries agreed to explore “economic and investment opportunities” from the end of the conflict.

The Daily Mail‘s attention is closer to home, concentrating on reaction to the Lady Chief Justice’s “rebuke” to the Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition for their criticism of a court ruling in an immigration case.

Another court ruling features on the front of the Metro which focuses on the High Court approval for Thames Water to borrow £3 billion – a figure labelled as “eye-watering” by a judge.

The Daily Mirror gives its front page over to an interview with the mother of nine-year-old Southport attack victim Alice da Silva Aguiar.

The Duchess of Sussex appears on the front page of The Sun, which says she has been accused of copying a Majorcan town’s coat of arms for the logo of her new brand.
