Keir Starmer has arrived in Ukraine to meet with Volodymyr Zelenskyy for the first time since entering Downing Street, days before Donald Trump returns to the White House, The Guardian reports.

The purpose of his unannounced trip is to sign an agreement to deepen existing defense relations and strengthen economic ties in non-military areas.

"Starmer is expected to discuss what security guarantees the UK can offer Kyiv, including the possibility of British troops being part of a post-war peacekeeping force," The Guardian reports.
