Sir Keir Starmer has chatted with schoolchildren in Kyiv on his first visit to the country since he became prime minister in July.

On the visit he met his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy to sign a new agreement which sets out co-operation between the countries that will stretch into the next century.

One pupil asked Starmer to reveal his favourite football player, to which the Arsenal fan replied that it was Martin Ødegaard and that his "all-time favourite Arsenal player is Thierry Henry".

Starmer also revealed that his favourite book is 'Roy of the Rovers', admitting all his books are about football.

Massive Russian Drone Attack: Ukraine Shoots Down 73 UAVs | Russia Trying To Spoil Turkey Talks?

In a major overnight assault on May 15–16, Russia launched 112 drones—including Shahed models—at Ukraine, striking multiple regions. Ukraine’s air defense systems shot down 73 UAVs, but the attack still caused damage across Odesa, Kyiv, Zhytomyr, Mykolaiv, and Chernihiv. The drones were launched from Bryansk, Kursk, and Millerovo. Ukrainian aircraft, missile units, and electronic warfare systems responded to the coordinated drone swarm. While 36 decoy drones vanished from radar, the repeated strikes continue to threaten both civilian infrastructure and military targets across Ukraine. #Ukraine #Russia #DroneAttack #ShahedDrones #Kyiv #Odesa #Zhytomyr #Mykolaiv #Chernihiv #UkraineWar #UAVStrike #AirDefense #UkraineNews #RussiaUkraineWar #MilitaryNews #BreakingNews #WarUpdate #MissileStrike #CivilianDamage #Putin #Zelensky #DefenseSystems #NightAttack #DroneSwarm #GeoPolitics #NATO #Bryansk #Kursk #Millerovo #UkrainianAirForce #WarInUkraine Also Read West Pitching China-India Against Each Other: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/west-pitching-china-india-against-each-other-russian-foreign-minister-sergei-lavrov-4155227.html?ref=DMDesc Drone Attack on Srinagar Airport Thwarted as Blasts Occur in Jammu and South Kashmir :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/drone-attack-srinagar-airport-thwarted-jammu-kashmir-011-4148943.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.124~

‘France leading West’s PARTY OF WAR’ | Kremlin hits back at Macron’s call for more sanctions

Russia has slammed French President Emmanuel Macron, accusing him of leading a “party of war” in NATO and the EU after he backed tougher sanctions on Moscow over the Ukraine conflict. The Kremlin says France is escalating hybrid warfare and blocking diplomacy by sending Mirage 2000 jets to Kyiv. Kremlin spokesperson Zakharova condemned the sanctions as an illegitimate trade war. Putin demands Ukraine halt mobilization and withdraw from Russian-claimed territories before any meaningful ceasefire talks can begin. #RussiaFranceTensions #Macron #UkraineWar #EUvsRussia #PartyOfWar #HybridWarfare #Zakharova #Putin #Mirage2000 #FranceUkraineSupport #RussiaSanctions #MacronVsPutin #EUForeignPolicy #KremlinWarning #TradeWar #EconomicPressure #NATO #UkraineConflict #RussiaIsolation #CeasefireDebate #EasternEuropeCrisis Also Read West Pitching China-India Against Each Other: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/west-pitching-china-india-against-each-other-russian-foreign-minister-sergei-lavrov-4155227.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Army Gets Russia-Made Igla-S Missiles :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indian-army-gets-russia-made-igla-s-missiles-4143017.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.125~
