Starmer gets first big diplomatic win with ‘irreversible’ Ukraine Nato membership plan
Less than a week since becoming prime minister, Sir Keir Starmer has set about repairing Britain’s reputation on the world stage
Sir Keir Starmer has begun to reset Britain’s relations with key allies as his plan to ensure Ukraine’s pathway to joining Nato is irreversible is set to be adopted.
The new prime minister arrived in Washington with support for his aim to protect Ukraine’s entry process into the Nato alliance from any potential interference from a Trump presidency.
He has spoken of his hopes that military and economic aid to Ukraine from Nato will be Donald Trump-proof should the former US president retake the White House in November.
With Nato leaders making the war in Ukraine one of their main topics, Sir Keir’s long-term call – which he made as Labour opposition leader – for the “irreversible” membership strategy is expected to be a key part of discussions.

As I say,Europe / US 2024 mightn't be as cruel and vicious as 1930s Germany, but we seem hardly less insane and bellicose and determined to our own ruin. .
