Britain ready to deploy peacekeepers in Ukraine — Starmer

The British Prime Minister noted that he did not make such a decision lightly, as it could be a potential "danger" to United Kingdom servicemen.

According to him, this, in particular, means "the readiness and desire to contribute to ensuring Ukraine's security guarantees by deploying our own troops on the ground, if necessary."

I do not say this lightly. I feel very deeply the responsibility that comes with the potential threat to British servicemen and women.
