Sir Keir Starmer insists the arrest of a 44-year-old Turkish man suspected of being a supplier of small boats is a "significant piece of the jigsaw" in tackling Channel migrant crossings, but says he was "not pretending it's the silver bullet". The suspect was detained at Schipol Airport in Amsterdam on Wednesday after a joint investigation by Dutch and Belgian authorities, and the UK's National Crime Agency (NCA). Report by Blairm.

Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba has issued a dire warning about the future of Ukraine, suggesting that the nation could spiral into civil unrest and even face total collapse if U.S. President-elect Donald Trump imposes an unfavourable peace agreement with Russia. Kuleba’s stark prediction comes amid growing fears in Kiev that Trump’s approach may include cutting financial and military support, potentially leaving Ukraine vulnerable. Trump’s vague peace plans have already unsettled Ukrainian officials, with concerns mounting over the nation’s stability and sovereignty under a forced settlement.

In a rare and high-stakes diplomatic exchange, Russian President Vladimir Putin and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz reconnected for the first time in nearly two years, engaging in a detailed and frank hour-long conversation. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov characterised the call as a candid discussion where both leaders outlined their positions on the Ukraine conflict. Putin, speaking in Russian through a translator despite his German proficiency, reiterated Moscow’s demands for Ukraine’s neutrality, demilitarisation, and the recognition of Russian-annexed territories. Scholz, facing a political crisis at home, pressed for a withdrawal of Russian troops and reaffirmed Germany’s strong support for Ukraine. The timing of the call, coinciding with key international events, marks a pivotal moment in Russia-Germany relations as diplomatic tensions continue to mount.
