British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has said President Donald Trump of the United States has a point that European countries must bear a greater burden for their collective self-defence.


Starmer said this in an interview with the New York Times on Sunday.


“We need to think about defence and security in a more immediate way,” he said.


The British prime minister is trying to assemble a multinational military force that he calls a coalition of the willing to keep Ukraine’s skies, ports and borders secure after any peace settlement.

Speaking on Trump, the UK PM said, “On a person-to-person basis, I think we have a good relationship.”


He, however, said that the US leader’s actions, from imposing a 25% tariff on British steel to berating President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine, had generated quite a degree of disorientation.
