Will the plan succeed?
There are several challenges. While Starmer has said the UK is prepared to send troops, many European states are reluctant to commit — so far Germany, Spain and Poland have not offered to help.
Another is the toxic relationship between Zelenskyy and Trump, which Starmer and his French and Italian counterparts plan to circumvent by acting as intermediaries.
Ukraine’s president has also rejected calls for a ceasefire without detailed security guarantees.
Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron have so far been unsuccessful in persuading Trump to provide US cover for any peacekeeping force.
