No Relaxing of Sanctions - Sir Keir Starmer - Ukraine - Russia War - Trump47

 BBC News: Reports " Starmer accuses Putin of 'playing games' over Ukraine peace deal "

Lets Get Real:

Putin makes more demands after he has agreed to a deal, it is an old Russian tactic.  The Russians had agreed a deal with the US over a ceasefire in the Black Sea, but after the White House released information on the deal, there came demands for sanctions to be released.   Sir Keir is calling fore more tougher sanctions, on this the Labour PM is right, its the rest of Europe that worries this blog, will they want to appease Russia, time will tell, a new security dawn has developed, the US under Trump is no longer the security guarantee it was, times change and show must our perceptions. 

Macron on the Ukraine - Ukraine - Russia War - Trump47

Sky News: Reports " European allies not united on armed deployment in Ukraine as Macron announces 'reassurance force'....Details are emerging about the military assets being committed to help secure a lasting peace in Ukraine. Although some European nations appear wary, and the British prime minister admits, "we also need US involvement".  "

Lets Get Real:

This is when the car hits the road, will the UK and France follow through with the troops on the ground, troops and air cover.  The French are talking about a reassurance force, sounds soft to this blog, and the UK wants the US involvement, Trump has been pretty clear that is not going to happen.   This is 1947 all over again but in reverse, the US is saying it will not defend the Ukraine, and that it will be up to the Brits and the coalition of the wiling.   Why Sir Keir has to use that term, reminds one of Iraq in 2003.  This is time to show some backbone, stand up to Putin.
