Sir Keir Starmer\u00a0<\/a>will join\u00a0Volodymyr Zelensky<\/a>\u00a0and other top European leaders in Washington for talks with\u00a0Donald Trump<\/a>\u00a0tomorrow.<\/p>\n

The Prime Minister \u2018stands ready to support this next phase of further talks and will reaffirm that his backing for Ukraine will continue for as long as it takes\u2019,\u00a0Downing Street<\/a>\u00a0said.<\/p>\n

It comes after the US president met with\u00a0Vladimir Putin for a high-risk meeting in Alaska on Friday<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 one that Kyiv was not invited to.<\/p>\n

After literally giving the Russian president the red carpet treatment, Trump split from European allies by backing Putin\u2019s Ukraine peace agreement.<\/p>\n

The Kremlin\u2019s plan to end its grinding, three-year-long war in Ukraine would see the country be cut apart, with some land given to Russia.<\/p>\n

Trump believes that a peace deal would be hashed out quickly if Zelensky agrees to the rest of the Donbas region to Russia \u2013\u00a0Russia already controls 88% of the region in eastern Ukraine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

He wrote on his social media platform,\u00a0Truth Social<\/a>, that he, Kyiv and Europe agree that a peace deal to end the war, rather than a ceasefire, is the only option.<\/p>\n

\u2018If all works out, we will then schedule a meeting with President Putin. Potentially, millions of people\u2019s lives will be saved. Thank you for your attention to this matter!\u2019 he added.<\/p>\n
