    UK’s ‘100-year partnership’ with Ukraine is a meaningless political stunt

    British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced a 100-year partnership between their countries during a meeting in Kyiv on January 16. On the eve of Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th United States president, this was Starmer’s attempt to position Britain as Ukraine’s best friend at a time when Zelenskyy needs all the friends he can get. In truth, the 100-year partnership appears to offer nothing new.
