Ir Keir Starmer was the first leader to arrive at this conference in Paris, strolling the road from the British Embassy.
When he appeared, after three hours of discussion he looked gloomy.
Ir Kiel, like other political heavyweights who have come to Elysie Palace, know that Europe has been abused and alienated over the past week or so by the actions and rhetoric that have emerged from Washington.

Therefore, this conference was for political leaders to reaffirm themselves to some extent.
But when we spoke it was clear that it would lay the line.
It’s not about what the Ukrainian peace agreement looks like, nor about how it will be policed.

The Prime Minister said he was ready to deploy British forces to the ground, but emphasized that the US must provide what he called a “backstop.”
He didn’t elaborate exactly what this means, but it’s clear that he’s talking about America committing military muscles to ensure Ukraine’s future.
As the Prime Minister argues, “permanent peace” is not a ceasefire in which European leaders simply believe Vladimir Putin will allow him to reorganize his army and launch another attack. I argue.
Ir Kiel is trying to bending some diplomatic muscles – more intense than Olaf Scholz, who promises to go to Washington next week for a meeting with Donald Trump, for example, who will certainly bring back life. It surprises the tone. And then I report to European leaders.
It is a suspect that Ir Kiel will never play a leadership role in post-Brexit Europe, and that is what he wants to take.

But the great fear of Europeans may be that America and Russia don’t want to talk to each other alone about Ukraine, but trade deals, geopolitical agreements, and sculptures of potential lands.
If Donald Trump actually looks at the future of America from a harsh perspective of trading makers, he may have more common with Putin than most European leaders.
And it would look like a new world order.
