Keir Starmer: Trump Seeks Enduring Peace in Ukraine

London (Eurotoday) – UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer said he was convinced Donald Trump wanted to witness lasting peace in Ukraine despite an unsightly row between the U.S. leader and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

During an interview with BBC television, Starmer stated he was uncomfortable observing the discussion between Trump and Zelenskiy when the Ukrainian leader was requested to leave after being charged with being unappreciated for the U.S. support delivered to his country.

I have to say, I’ve spoken to President Trump a number of times. I’ve met him twice … I’m clear in my mind that he does want lasting peace. He does want an end to be fighting in Ukraine,

he stated.

A day earlier, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer welcomed President Volodymyr Zelenskiy with a friendly embrace after the Ukrainian leader fled to the UK for discussions following his clash at the White House with U.S. President Donald Trump.

What role does the UK play in Ukraine’s peace deal?

Two days back, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer stated that he had blank”>examined with U.S. President Donald Trump a Ukraine peace agreement that would be hard and fair and that the UK was prepared to put boots on the floor and planes in the air to defend it.

We discussed a plan today to reach a peace that is tough and fair, that Ukraine will help shape, that is backed by strength, to stop Putin coming back for more,

Starmer expressed alongside Trump at the White House.

I’m clear that the UK is ready to put boots on the ground and planes in the air to support a deal, working together with our allies, because that is the only way that peace will last.
