Starmer hails breakthrough on Ukraine

The Sir Kire Stmper asked US President Donald Trump for a success to a safety guarantee for Ukraine, as he agitated for a meeting between Volodimir Zelansky and Vladimir Putin.

The Prime Minister attended the summit of leaders at the White House on Monday, cutting his family holiday in Scotland. What Sir Keir said overnight, it seems that he believes that small sacrifice was worth it.

He is presiding over a virtual meeting of the European and Commonwealth colleagues, coalitions on Tuesday to update the leaders and discuss the next stages.

Sir Keer has long been the proposer of so -called gratitude diplomacy – thanking and praising Donald Trump – so he was likely to be important about the results.

And when there is a concern about the future remains of Ukraine in the circle of the UK government, the Prime Minister is happy that the argument he gives is a significant progress.

He told the BBC after the meeting that it has “shown that we have moved forward, and finally there has always been a test for me – are we making real progress.”

Behind the curtain, European authorities were worried that the White House meeting was at risk.

One told me that he felt that President Trump Sensing was in danger that President Zelancesi was not committed to the US -led peace process, concluding that European leaders were digging behind Ukrainian, and clarifying his disappointment on camera.

Such a partition would have been a gift to Moscow, so all the leaders involved in it were in pain to clarify that they did not have their approach.

Before going to Washington, Sir Kir said “there was a real understanding Unity “ between them.

The Prime Minister told the BBC that he was “very happy” with the results, including progress on security guarantee, saying that it would “assure people in Europe, in Ukraine, but especially in the United Kingdom.”

He also welcomed the “real movement forward” on bilateral and trilateral meetings between Russia, Ukraine and the US, saying that it is a “peace that will help achieve permanent and just”.

Leaders of Ukraine and Europe have clearly decided to visit Donald Trump’s peace plans.

The assessment of diplomats from various countries involved is that if the process eventually fails, they would not have contributed to that failure.

The UK government now focuses on ensuring that Ukraine is in the strongest possible position for any possible peace talks.

With my conversation with UK officials, he believes that yesterday’s White House meeting was helpful in this attempt on two digits.

First, Trump did not resonate Putin’s demands for the Ukrainian region and placed Zelanceci on the spot on a sensitive and emotional issue – at least in front of cameras.

Now an unspecified acceptance in the White House seems to be that Ukraine will need to move forward and slowly on any discussion on the ground. Any 10 repeatedly stated that the question of the region is a case for Ukraine and Ukraine alone.

After Monday’s talks, the Prime Minister insisted, “No decision should be taken about Ukraine without Ukraine.”

Secondly, flexibility is important in any conversation. UK officials argue that Trump’s commitment to American participation in “raw iron” security guarantee means that Zelanski can now be far more flexible in his approach, knowing that Ukraine will be protected by his colleagues.

A pre-conclusion seems to be a child’s possibilities. Trump has rejected the need for ceasefire and wants to move straight to agree on peace terms.

The White House talks by German Chancellor Frederick Merz and French President Emmanuel Macron mentioned the importance of having a ceasefire.

The UK assessment is that a ceasefire was never the central objective of the US administration and hence Sir Keer is called “Lone Point of Tension” on the issue.

As the Prime Minister returned to the UK, the military officials are due to traveling in the opposite direction before detailed discussion about the US participation in the security guarantee.

Trump has not yet explained a lot of expansion on what the US forces can offer, but the European leaders are satisfied to take their public commitment as significant progress.

The major unknown is what Moscow will further.

There is an argument involved in this that Putin may retreat from the route towards peace that is designed for him. If he does so, he is expecting Europe with Europe and not with Russia.
