British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Monday stepping up support for Ukraine was essential to put the country in the strongest position for peace talks as he conceded in the clearest terms there could be a negotiated end to the war, APA reports citing Reuters.
Starmer stressed the importance of continued Western support to Ukraine and warned a Russian victory in Ukraine would threaten Europe's security, stability and prosperity, particularly because it could embolden Russia's allies.
"We must continue to back Ukraine and do what it takes to support their self-defence for as long as it takes," Starmer said in a speech in London's historic financial district.
"To put Ukraine in the strongest possible position for negotiations so they can secure a just and lasting peace on their terms that guarantees their security, independence - and right to choose their own future."
