Britain Pledges Troops to Keep Peace in Ukraine

Playbook: “Starmer is emerging as a possible conduit between the White House and Europe, having struck up a surprisingly positive relationship with Trump so far. Despite their political differences — Starmer’s Labour Party is a center-left, liberal outfit — Trump has showered praise on his opposite number, describing Starmer as a ‘nice guy’ doing ‘a very good job.’”
