Keir Starmer emphasized the need for Europe to contribute to peacekeeping efforts in Ukraine during a recent meeting of European leaders. He expressed willingness to deploy British troops as long as a US security guarantee is in place to deter additional Russian aggression. Meanwhile, ongoing talks between the US and Russia have excluded key European figures like Ukraine's President Zelenskyy, raising concerns about Europe's security role. The situation signals a significant divide in transatlantic relations, echoing tensions not seen since WWII, as European leaders debate the next steps in supporting Ukraine.
The UK prime minister added: I'm prepared to consider committing British forces on the ground, alongside others, if there is a lasting peace agreement.
European leaders, including Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, have been excluded from talks in Riyadh between the US and Russia about ending the war in Ukraine.
