The Labour leader, Keir Starmer, travelled to the Ukrainian cities of Bucha, Irpin and Kyiv on Thursday, during a visit to meet president Volodymyr Zelenskiy. The trip is Starmer’s first to Ukraine since Russia invaded last year. Speaking to reporters, he emphasised Labour’s commitment to continue supporting Kyiv in its war with Russia, and the broader need to pursue justice and reparations against war crimes perpetrators. The Labour leader told reporters: ‘Should there be an election next year and a change of government, the position on Ukraine will remain the same.’
