UK's PM Starmer: Britain wants to ensure US and Europe remain together

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said his country would work to ensure the U.S. and Europe remained together and that they should not allow divisions to distract them from "external enemies", the BBC reported on Saturday.



Starmer's comments came after U.S. President Donald Trump's Ukraine envoy said at the Munich Security Conference earlier on Saturday that Europe would not have a seat at the table for Ukraine peace talks.



Senior officials from Trump's administration are expected to start peace talks with Russian and Ukrainian negotiators in Saudi Arabia in the coming days.



In the meantime, France is discussing with its allies holding an informal summit of European leaders to discuss Ukraine, and four European diplomats said the meeting was likely to go ahead on Monday.
