Fears raised over Starmer's plan for troops in Ukraine

ANTI-WAR campaigners today rejected “complete rubbish” from Sir Keir Starmer as he demanded further European militarisation.

The summit was hastily called over the weekend as the United States meets with Russia to discuss a possible ceasefire deal and European leaders scramble for strategy following the US U-turn on Ukraine. The US invited neither Ukraine nor any western European ally to join its talks with Russia on a settlement.
