UK and France Forge Unity to Support Ukraine Amid US Uncertainty
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer met with French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris to strategize joint support for Ukraine, particularly amid concerns over potential changes in US foreign policy under Donald Trump. Both leaders aim to strengthen Ukraine’s defenses with increased military aid, addressing the risks of weakened Western backing. Discussions may also cover urging President Biden to allow Ukraine to use Storm Shadow missiles for deeper strikes into Russian territory. The meeting, highlighted by Starmer’s presence at a remembrance ceremony, symbolizes European solidarity in light of recent geopolitical shifts.
