UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer attended the Armistice Day commemorations in Paris with French President Emmanuel Macron, marking the first time a British prime minister had been in France for this event since Winston Churchill in 1944. Starmer announced £10 million in UK funding for next year's 80th anniversary of the end of the Second World War. Discussions between Starmer and Macron focused on the challenges facing Ukraine and the fear of rising global frictions due to the wars in Gaza and Lebanon. Starmer's visit follows concerns over Donald Trump's threats to end US support to Kyiv and the possibility of the US withdrawing from NATO. The visit marks a turning point in UK-France relations following Brexit and highlights the importance of their leaders' visions for the future of Europe.
