Starmer and his allies have no choice but to keep their Trump criticisms implict
Saturday, 16 August 2025 () Sir Keir Starmer is straining his diplomatic sinews to simultaneously praise Donald Trump's efforts to end the war in Ukraine, while repeating calls for a completely different approach - one which ends the cosy bonhomie with Vladimir Putin, threatens the Russians with sanctions, and puts the Ukrainians back centre stage.
The King and Queen observed a flypast at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire as they commemorated the 80th anniversary of VJ Day. Sir Keir Starmer and wife Victoria also watched as the RAF's aerobatics team flew overhead.

German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius has issued a stark warning to Moscow, declaring German troops are “ready to Kill Russian soldiers” if Russia attacks any NATO member. Speaking in Lithuania, Pistorius emphasized Germany’s duty to defend NATO’s eastern flank and said the Bundeswehr is shifting from deterrence to combat readiness. Citing Russia as an existential threat, he called for increased NATO presence in Eastern Europe. Berlin’s new strategic posture reflects a major departure from post-WWII restraint amid fears of a full-scale NATO-Russia conflict.

Russia accuses Ukraine of chemical warfare after claiming to uncover drone bombs containing chloropicrin, a banned toxic agent, in Donetsk. Russian authorities say the devices, intended for UAV deployment, were found in a Ukrainian weapons cache and filed WMD-related charges. If verified, this would mark a dangerous escalation in the war. Ukraine has not responded to the allegation. Global watchdogs may now face pressure to investigate the use of banned chemical agents in the conflict.
