The SNP say Donald Trump needs to be a steadfast ally of Ukraine after a fiery exchange with Zelensky on Friday.

Starmer at a meeting in Washington last week used a mixture of flattery and the invitation from the royal family for an unprecedented second state visit to try to win a commitment

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer rejected calls to cancel the offer of a state visit to US President Donald Trump. Such calls arose after an altercation between the head of the White House and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy,

A second state visit cannot go ahead if the US president does not show further support for Ukraine, Stephen Gethins says.

The UK “shouldn’t be talking” of giving Donald Trump another state visit in light of the “unacceptable” scenes in the Oval Office, John Swinney has said. He has called on the offer of a state visit to the UK to be rescinded unless the US president gives “full scale” backing to Ukraine.
