Following a meeting with world leaders, Starmer has announced a £1.6bn financing package to Ukraine, the creation of a “Coalition of the Willing”, and that a deal to be presented to Trump. He has emphasised:
- The importance of the US’s participation in the coalition
- His trust in the US as an ongoing ally to Europe
- His confidence that a deal will be reached
Here are the four points the bbc is reporting, which are completely different to yours. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cn5220x56pqt
-
To keep military aid flowing into Ukraine while the war is ongoing, and increase economic pressure on Russia
-
Any lasting peace must ensure Ukraine’s sovereignty and security, and Ukraine must be at the table for any peace talks
-
In the event of a peace deal, European leaders will aim to deter any future invasion by Russia into Ukraine
-
There would be a “coalition of the willing” to defend Ukraine and guarantee peace in the country
Thank you for posting these and yes absolutely, this is the overarching four-point strategy that he outlined.
I was summarising the points specifically with respect his comments on Trump and the USA’s involvement, perhaps I should have made that clear.
Yes, you should have. Several people in here seem to be reacting to the mistaken idea that Europe’s only focus is Trump.
It’s a very odd way to frame it.
This is almost entirely a European plan.
