LONDON, UK — Prime Minister Keir Starmer has commended Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for his unwavering commitment to securing peace following a phone call between the two leaders. The conversation came after a major setback for Ukraine, as former U.S. President Donald Trump announced the suspension of military aid to the war-torn nation.
The controversial move has sparked widespread condemnation and heightened concerns over the White House’s increasingly close ties with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Veteran Conservative MP Graham Stuart even questioned whether Trump could be acting as a Russian asset, while U.S. Vice President JD Vance caused further uproar by allegedly downplaying the UK’s military contributions—comments he later denied.
