Labour have been doing their best to downplay reports about the difficulties that like ahead of Sir Keir Starmer - but it's clearly going to be an uphill battle for the PM to forge a productive relationship with the incoming US president.

Keir Starmer will meet President Volodymyr Zelensky for talks on strengthening the bond between the UK and Ukraine in the face of Russia’s brutal onslaught

Britain has been at the forefront of western countries offering military support for Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion began in February 2022, but the question of whether the UK would put troops on the ground to help guarantee any peace deal will be a big test for Starmer.

Keir Starmer will travel to Ukraine in the coming weeks to discuss the possibility of deploying an international peacekeeping force there after the conflict with Russia has ended, his first visit to the war-torn nation since becoming UK prime minister half a year ago.

Arriving on Thursday morning, he accompanied Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to lay flowers at a wall of remembrance for those killed in the war with Russia - telling reporters the UK will "never let up" on giving the necessary support to Ukraine.

The prime minister said it will help ensure the country is "never again vulnerable to the kind of brutality inflicted on it by Russia".
