WOODSTOCK, England (AP) — Leaders from across Europe are gathering at an English country mansion for a summit of the European Political Community. The focus is on migration and Ukraine.

Newly elected U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer welcomed around 45 national leaders to Blenheim Palace. The country mansion is northwest of London.
