UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer wants a guarantee of U.S. military intervention in Ukraine in a worst-case scenario to ensure any future peace deal there goes ahead.

Speaking in Paris after an emergency summit with European leaders on Monday, Starmer said U.S. backing is the “only way to effectively deter Russia from attacking Ukraine again.”

And he said the future of Ukraine is not the only thing at stake.

“It is an existential question for Europe as a whole, and therefore vital for Britain’s national interests,” he added. “This is a once in a generation moment for the collective security of our continent.”

Any peace deal for Ukraine must “safeguard its sovereignty” and deter Russian leader Vladimir Putin from engaging in “further aggression in the future,” Sir Keir added.

“[Will the US military back the treaty] is an existential question for Europe as a whole, and therefore vital for Britain’s national interests,”

I agree, but it kinda makes me think Europe needs to pony up more money to help us keep their collective asses out of the embers.

Really? This bum german “leader” needs to take care of his own problems. Time to stop the socialism and spend his citizens’ money elsewhere (like maybe defending themselves). As to the USA taxpayer...most of us have had enough of these parasitic nations.

“Keir Starmer: Ukraine Peace Deal Must Get U.S. Commitment to Military Intervention in Worst-Case Scenario”

Sending 100 or so Brits to campaign AGAINST Trump was probably a ‘less-than-ideal’ decision...come to think of it.

Or: Sure, Prime Minister. How about you give Canada to the US in return for a US security guarantee for Ukraine?

The Russians won’t agree to a treaty they are not willing to live with.

The land Ukraine is losing won’t be coming back to Ukraine for years, and maybe never.

If that Euroscum wants to send European boys to die there, fine by me. But no American troops should get involved. It’s not worth one American life.
