Almost 20 European leaders, incl Emmanuel Macron & Friedrich Merz, plus VDL, have posted in support of
@ZelenskyyUa after White House showdown.
Notably, Keir Starmer has not. No 10 is referring reporters to PM’s comments this week on a just & lasting peace, with Ukraine at heart of talks.
Starmer has previously said he doesn’t think UK has to pick sides between US & Europe, and insiders say he believes he can act as a bridge.
Although it’s difficult, they think it’s important Europe still has Trump’s ear, and that UK can play a role taking heat out of situation. But very risky.
