Starmer Urges G20 Leaders at Summit to Intensify Support for Ukraine Amid Biden's Long-Range Missile Authorization

Nov 18, 2024, 03:20 AM

UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is set to urge G20 leaders to intensify their support for Ukraine during the upcoming summit. His call comes amid reports that U.S. President Joe Biden has authorized Ukraine to use U.S.-supplied long-range missiles to strike deep into Russian territory. Starmer emphasized the need for allies to 'double down' on their commitment to Ukraine, framing it as a top priority on his agenda. The timing of Starmer's appeal is significant, as it precedes the inauguration of Donald Trump as U.S. president in January, which may alter the dynamics of international support for Ukraine.
