U.S To Break UK Alliance, Fight WWIII? Starmer Challenges Trump For Calling Zelensky a ‘Dictator’

U.S To Break UK Alliance, Fight WWIII? UK PM Starmer Blasts Trump For Calling Zelensky a ‘Dictator’. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has strongly condemned Donald Trump’s remarks calling Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky a "dictator." Starmer defended Zelensky as a democratically elected leader" and justified Ukraine’s decision to suspend elections during wartime, drawing parallels to the UK’s actions during World War II. His criticism comes ahead of his visit to Washington, where he is set to meet Trump and discuss a US security "backstop" to deter future Russian aggression. With tensions rising between the US, UK, and Ukraine, is a diplomatic showdown on the horizon? #KeirStarmer #DonaldTrump #VolodymyrZelensky #UkraineWar #UKUSRelations #TrumpVsZelensky #RussiaUkraineConflict #WorldPolitics #Geopolitics #StarmerVsTrump #USUKShowdown #NATO #UkraineSupport #PoliticalTensions #GlobalDiplomacy #KeirStarmer #DonaldTrump #VolodymyrZelensky #UkraineWar #UKUSRelations #TrumpVsZelensky #RussiaUkraineConflict #WorldPolitics #Geopolitics #StarmerVsTrump #USUKShowdown #NATO #UkraineSupport #PoliticalTensions #GlobalDiplomacy ~PR.152~ED.194~HT.318~GR.124~
