Warnings British Army is too small to help Ukraine - as Keir Starmer signs 100-year pledge that could put forces on Putin's border

Daily Mail  

The British Army is too small to play any major peacekeeping role in Ukraine, military figures have suggested. It comes as Sir Keir Starmer signed a 100-year deal with Ukraine on Thursday that could put forces on Putin's borders - as he said there are 'unbreakable bonds' between the UK and Ukraine. The deal may result in UK forces being deployed to help police a future peace deal between warring Russia and Ukraine, the Prime Minister said. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy shake hands after a signing ceremony Sir Keir signed a 100-year deal with Ukraine on Thursday that could put forces on Putin's borders Sir Keir and Zelensky shake hands after a signing of a 100-year partnership agreement on Thursday Military experts previously warned that the UK's armed forces are stretched thin During his campaign, Mr Trump promised to push for a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia, although he has since tempered his initial pledge to end the war on 'day one'. Military experts previously warned that the UK's armed forces are stretched thin, while any troop deployment could escalate tensions with Moscow.
