Starmer to Trump: "We HAVE TO put extra pressure on Putin"
"We have to ramp that pressure up"

Starmer: “… We saw damage and bombing to the British Council in Kyiv. These are targets that it was thought until recently were not targets will be hit — the British Council, the European Union embassy, the Council of Ministers, where President Zelenskyy is, ministers work — was hit again. These were thought to be places that wouldn't be hit, and then the incursion into Poland last week. And if you put that together, what you can see is either an emboldenment or at least an increased recklessness of Putin's part, and that's why I said earlier that they're not the actions of someone who wants peace.”
“So we have to ramp up. And we discussed earlier today, we have built the Coalition of the Willing with British leadership and French leadership stepping up with military planning in the seas, in the sky, in the on the ground, and ramping up what we do with the Ukrainians themselves. And of course, that taken with an American guarantee is now an example, I think, of Europe stepping up to the plate, which it has done in the last few months, to show through what we and the French have done, that we're prepared to take the lead in this..”

Trump says he hopes “we’re going to have some good news for you coming up.”
“I will say this, it’s millions of people have died in that war, millions of souls, and they’re not American the soldiers, mostly soldiers, … [that] are being killed at levels nobody’s seen since the second world war. But they’re being they’re being killed, and I feel I have an obligation to get it settled for that reason.”
He repeatedly says that the Russian invasion of Ukraine was potentially “heading to a third world war,” although “I don’t think we’re going to go there now.”

“If the oil price comes down, very simply, Russia will settle,” Trump insists.
Says he is willing “to do other things” to help Europeans push back against Russia, but “not when the people that I’m fighting for are buying oil from Russia.”
“You can’t [do that], that’s not playing fair with the United States, and we can’t have that,” he says.
