Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has backed Volodymyr Zelensky as a "democratically elected leader" after Donald Trump described Zelensky dictator. This prompts Trump to call the Ukraine President dictator after the former failed to conduct the Ukraine Presidential election. But he was on the right ground for war is still ongoing and the election might be disrupted with drones or from ballistic missiles. It is also unfair for Zelensky to be addressed dictator. It seems Trump is crossing the line.

It is very obvious why Trump likes to have an election, it's obvious he wants the next Ukraine president to approve his proposal to buy a portion of Ukraine's land which is rich of minerals .

At least rhe British leader, Sir Keir called Zelensky on Wednesday evening and told him it was "perfectly reasonable" for Ukraine to "suspend elections during wartime as the UK did during World War Two", Downing Street said.

The US president had earlier criticised Zelensky, saying he had done a "terrible job" and claiming "he refuses to have elections" in Ukraine. Zelensky's five-year term was due to end in May 2024, but elections have been suspended since martial law was declared after Russia's invasion.

Sir Keir will travel to Washington DC next week for his first in-person meeting with Trump. The Brutish troops will be deplored to Ukraine to help guarantee its security as part of a peace deal provided there was a US "backstop".

Western officials said the number of land troops involved would be less than 30,000, with the aim of providing reassurance to the Ukrainian people, rather than a peacekeeping force

Lastly, the Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey said calling Zelensky a dictator "must be where the line is drawn" and he hoped "the whole political spectrum... will speak with one voice in opposition to Trump's lies".
