When Prime Minister Keir Starmer swept out the Conservative government in July, he promised a new era for British politics and a reset of its relations with the European Union.
Tensions between London and Moscow spiked this week over signs that the United States, prodded by Britain, is moving toward allowing Ukraine to use Western-supplied missiles.
Getting Mr. Biden to sign off on such strikes is critical, analysts said, for symbolic and operational reasons: the missiles use satellite data and other technology supplied by the United States.
Starmer wants to play into that to encourage him to go as far as he can on Ukraine, especially at a moment of deep political uncertainty in the United States.
