Watch live: UK defence secretary John Healey speaks as Europe split over Starmer pledge to send troops to Ukraine

Watch live as UK defence secretary John Healey speaks after a split emerged among European nations over whether to match Sir Keir Starmer’s pledge to send UK troops to Ukraine.



UK Defence Secretary John Healey addresses divisions among European nations over Sir Keir Starmer's pledge to send troops to Ukraine. The split emerged during an emergency summit in Paris, amid concerns about potential US reductions in transatlantic defence commitments. The meeting followed a Republican plan to bypass Europe by directly engaging Russia in Ukraine peace talks. Starmer, echoing French support, offered to deploy UK troops and called for a US "backstop" to deter further Russian aggression.
