He stressed that Russia is not winning the war against Ukraine.
"Over the past year, Russia has suffered huge losses. 500,000 soldiers to occupy 1% of Ukraine's territory. This is not a country that can say it is winning after four years of conflict," the British Prime Minister said.
Starmer also noted that Ukrainian soldiers are carrying out successful counteroffensive operations.
"The Russian economy is also taking a hit, with oil revenues declining. There are budget deficits. We are focusing on the shadow fleet, and there is still much to be done," said the British Prime Minister.
Support for Ukraine
He also called for support for Ukraine and a focus on the most important priorities for Ukraine, in particular the €90 billion aid package.
"There is only one person standing in the way of progress in the negotiations, and that is Putin," Starmer said.
