...The source, a European diplomat with knowledge of the situation, warned that Moscow would notice with interest that Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia have been excluded. 

"Russia and our publics will clearly assess this that we are sold out by the US, but also by the UK and France," said the source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. 

Starmer will host the leaders of more than a dozen European countries, including Zelensky, for a summit in the UK on Sunday to discuss Russia's war in Ukraine and wider European security. 

The diplomatic source confirmed Sir Keir would have a phone call with the leaders of the Baltic states - but signalled this was a poor substitute for not participating in the summit, which will take place in person. 

"We are truly very unhappy with a refusal to invite the Baltic leaders," the source said. 

Macron recently held a European emergency summit on Ukraine in Paris and also didn't invite any of the Baltic States to the meeting.
