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
- His trust in the US as an ongoing ally to Europe
- His confidence that a deal will be reached
with so many foreign troops fighting for russia in ukraine, there is zero justification for european troops not to be fighting with the ukranians as well. zero. every day that uk & france aren’t mobilzing and deploying troops to ukraine is just more european stalling until complete abandonment
They’re preparing for deployment asap pretty much
no. they really really really aren’t.
What makes you think that?
That would be risky. Could easily trigger a world war.
sure could, but if russia is using foreign troops to fight and kill european ukranians it already is by definition
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.
It’s really only different for two reasons:
France and the UK could absolutely dedicate expeditionary forces.
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.
