**UK Prime Minister Calls US Help in Ukraine**

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has asked the United States to European peacekeeping force in Ukraine. He says this is necessary to stop Russia from taking more aggressive action.

Starmer made his request after an emergency meeting in on 17. The meeting was called by French President Emmanuel to discuss how Europe can help Ukraine. Some leaders, like German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, were not sure if a European peacekeeping force was a good idea.

**US Support Needed**

Starmer believes that the US must be involved for the peacekeeping force to work. He says that British troops would join forces from other countries, but they need American help with logistics and military support. UK defense officials agree, saying that even a non-combat force of ,000 troops needs protection from NATO.

**Concerns Over Trump’s Approach**

Some are worried about how US President Donald Trump will approach peace talks with Russia. They fear he might make concessions to Russia without considering Ukrainian interests. This is because Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin have been talking about a potential ceasefire.

US diplomats will meet Russian officials in soon to discuss a possible deal. Starmer wants the US to support a European force, but some leaders are skeptical of the timing, saying that more focus should be on military and financial for Ukraine.
