Starmer and Macron plan to accompany Zelensky to White House on Trump visit

@PierceSutton

Sir Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron are considering accompanying Volodymyr Zelensky to Washington to salvage his relationship with Donald Trump.

The visit would be part of a three-pronged plan being worked out by Kyiv’s European allies after a dramatic spat in the Oval Office between the US and Ukrainian presidents led to Washington suspending military support for the war-torn nation.

“We are considering potentially having President Macron travel again to Washington, alongside President Zelensky and his British counterpart,” an Élysée Palace spokesman said.

“We’re currently engaged in tight negotiations which involve the French president, as well as the entire government.”

Mr Macron’s office later said there were no current plans for the trip, while No 10 also denied plans were under way.

It comes as Mike Waltz, the US president’s national security adviser, said the president would consider restoring aid to Ukraine if peace talks were arranged and “confidence-building measures on the table”.
