Starmer wants to meet with Zelensky quickly
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer wants to receive Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi in Downing Street on Saturday. He has extended an invitation to a Ukraine summit in London on Sunday, at which Zelensky is also expected to attend.
Prior to this, there had been an unprecedented scandal between Zelensky and US President Donald Trump in the White House. Following the dispute, the White House announced that it was suspending military aid to Ukraine. Many European politicians then expressed their support for Zelensky. Starmer is also maintaining his unwavering support for Ukraine and is doing everything he can to find a path to lasting peace, according to statements from the seat of government in London.
The British head of government is now trying to position himself as a transatlantic bridge builder. He has already spoken to Trump and Selensky on the phone. Meanwhile, many of his colleagues posted public expressions of solidarity with the Ukrainian president on social media. Starmer had demonstratively sought harmony with Trump during his own visit to Washington this week.

He has invited European heads of state and government to his Ukraine summit in London on Sunday. Among others, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD), French President Emmanuel Macron, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk and EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen are expected to attend. Selenskyj has already arrived in the UK by plane from the USA.
