Following a meeting with world leaders, Starmer has announced a £1.6bn financing package to Ukraine, the creation of a “Coalition of the Willing”, and that a deal to be presented to Trump. He has emphasised:

  • The importance of the US’s participation in the coalition

        Well yes but it’s a bit different if you have north Koreans Vs Ukrainians or a world war where Russia moves into Poland and China into Taiwan.

          Russia isn’t in any way a threat to expand their invasion. If they could simultaneously invade Poland they wouldn’t be struggling so hard to reclaim their own territory, let alone conquer Ukraine. China is the one powerful and expansive enough to worry about.

          It’s really only different for two reasons:

          1. That side already has access to nukes.
          2. Russian propaganda.

          France and the UK could absolutely dedicate expeditionary forces.
