US-UK relations

What is Keir Starmer's position on deploying British troops to Ukraine?

Keir Starmer has stated he would be prepared to deploy British troops on the ground in Ukraine alongside other countries, but only to ensure a lasting peace after a ceasefire is achieved. This commitment demonstrates the UK's support for Ukraine while attempting to bridge the divide between the US and Europe. A YouGov survey indicated that just over half of the British public supports this approach, with only about 20% opposed to it. However, questions remain about whether the UK military has sufficient personnel and funding for such a deployment given current constraints on defence spending.
