washington - British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's efforts to persuade President Trump for US military support in case of a peacekeeping force did not alter Trump's views on Ukraine and NATO.

British PM Keir Starmer's Visit to White House

During a meeting in the Oval Office, President Trump expressed confidence in Russian President Putin's adherence to agreements, ruling out NATO membership for Ukraine. Starmer's mission to be Trump's best friend did not sway Trump's stance. The visit, orchestrated as a gesture to appoint a controversial British ambassador, included discussions on security guarantees for Ukraine and NATO solidarity.

French President Macron's recent visit highlighted Europe's surprise at the US administration's foreign policy, sidelining European allies. President Zelensky is set to meet Trump to sign a resource deal, raising questions about safety assurances and Ukraine's involvement in peace talks with Russia. Starmer reportedly advocates for Ukraine's interests behind closed doors.
