Starmer

France is discussing holding an informal emergency Ukraine summit in Paris with European countries on Monday.

While ruling out rejoining the EU trade bloc five years after Brexit, Starmer said he wants to forge a closer relationship on defence, energy and trade.

Far-right misinformation about Axel Rudakubana’s attack in Southport last year led to riots and attacks on asylum seeker accommodation.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy has engaged in a flurry of diplomatic activity in the run-up to Donald Trump’s inauguration next Monday, which is expected to bring a departure from the outgoing US administration’s pledge to stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes to defeat Russia.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has arrived in Ukraine’s capital on Thursday with a pledge to help guarantee the country’s security for a century, days before Donald Trump is sworn in as U.S. president.
