Kathmandu. After the United States sided with Russia in the Russia-Ukraine war, European countries have stood by Ukraine. The dispute has flared up as the United States wants to end the war at a loss for Ukraine.
On Friday, US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky held talks in the Oval Office. After fierce accusations and counter-accusations between both sides, an agreement was not reached on stopping the war. Zelensky flew straight to the UK after failing to reach an agreement in the Oval Office.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said that Zelensky had “full support across the UK” when he met him at Downing Street.
The Ukrainian president, who arrived in the UK after a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Donald Trump at the White House, said that he was happy that his country had “such friends”.
Zelensky and Sir Keir also signed a £2.26 billion loan for Ukrainian military supplies. The loan, if Ukraine has to repay, will be used to buy modern weapons. After Saturday’s meeting, Sir Keir spoke with Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron.
European powerhouses Britain, France, Italy and Germany are ready to deploy troops on Ukrainian soil. The prime ministers of Britain and France met with US President Donald Trump a week ago to discuss the Ukraine issue. European countries have demanded security guarantees, saying Russia is a threat to Europe.
However, US President Trump has sought revenge on Zelensky for not cooperating with him in the election. Vice President DJ Vance accused him of campaigning against his party in Pennsylvania during the election in Friday’s talks. .
