War: You must provide ‘backstop’ to deter Russia from attacking Ukraine again – UK to Trump
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has said that the United States of America must provide a ‘backstop’ to deter Russia from attacking Ukraine again.
The British leader made this known after an emergency meeting by European leaders in Paris, France, on Monday.
“At stake is not just the future of Ukraine; it is an existential question for Europe as a whole,” the UK leader said.
He added that this is a “once-in-a-generation moment of collective security for our continent.”
“Only a lasting peace in Ukraine that safeguards its sovereignty will deter Putin from further aggression,” he said.
Speaking further, Starmer urged the Trump administration to provide a “backstop” to deter Russia from attacking Ukraine again.
Trump had recently asked Europe to step up, and the prime minister said the statement “should not come as a surprise.”
He said that “Europeans will have to step up, both in terms of spending and the capabilities that we provide to Ukraine.”
As this was going on in Paris, Trump and Putin were putting their heads together in Saudi Arabia to find a favorable path to ending the almost three-year war in Ukraine.
High-profile delegates from the US and Russia are converging in Saudi Arabia for a meeting that will commence on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, has declared that he would not accept the outcome of any peace deal reached in his absence. He also has the backing of European leaders on this.

G7 should take more risks to squeeze Russia – British PM
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Monday said that the Group of Seven (G7) wealthy countries should be willing to take on more risk with regard to sanctions against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.
Starmer stated this while speaking via video link to an international meeting held on the third anniversary of Russia’s invasion.
“I’m clear that the G7 should be ready to take on more risk, including on the oil price cap, sanctioning Russia’s oil giants, and going after the banks that are enabling the evasion of sanctions,” he said.
According to him, Britain would announce its largest package of sanctions against Russia since the early days of the war, including more measures against vessels used to help Russia evade sanctions and targeting companies in China and elsewhere who supply military components.
Earlier, Britain said it would ban entry to individuals who provide significant support or owe their wealth to the Russian state.
