Don't prolong war in Ukraine, peace activists warn Starmer
Prime Minister Keir Starmer returns to 10 Downing Street, London, after attending Prime Minister's Questions at the Houses of Parliament, February 12, 2025

PRIME Minister Sir Keir Starmer has been warned off making “ludicrous long-term commitments” that prolong the war in Ukraine ahead of an emergency summit with European leaders today.

The Prime Minister has vowed to “work to ensure we keep America and Europe together” prior to discussing how to respond to US President Donald Trump’s push for an end to the war in Ukraine at the summit called by French president Emmanuel Macron.

The UN estimates 12,456 civilians have been killed during the war that is set to begin its fourth year on February 24.
