Starmer says UK could send troops to Ukraine as Europe faces security crossroads
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has stated his willingness to deploy British troops to Ukraine if necessary to guarantee the country's security. This announcement comes ahead of a meeting of European leaders in Paris to discuss the implications of Washington's evolving policy on the war and growing concerns that Europe might be excluded from future negotiations between the US and Russia.
Starmer emphasized that ensuring Ukraine's security is vital for the security of the entire European continent and the UK itself. His comments mark the first time he has explicitly mentioned considering deploying British peacekeepers to Ukraine, signaling a potential shift in the UK's approach to the conflict amid what he described as a "once-in-a-generation moment."
