UK Fears Russia May Violate Ceasefire Without Ukraine's Security

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has said that if Ukraine is not given proper security, Russia might break the ceasefire at any time.

He warned that Russian President Vladimir Putin could decide to restart the war if Ukraine is not well protected. Starmer believes that a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine is important, but it must also come with strong security guarantees to make sure the ceasefire lasts.

According to the BBC, Starmer made these comments at a meeting in the UK, where representatives from over 20 countries gathered to discuss how to help Ukraine. The main goal of the meeting was to find ways to protect Ukraine and keep it safe from future attacks.

Starmer also said that Russia must understand that breaking the ceasefire would not just hurt Ukraine but could also create problems for Russia itself.

The discussions in the UK are focused on protecting Ukraine in every way—on land, in the air, and at sea. The UK has previously suggested that it might send troops to Ukraine if necessary.
