  • Downing Street has said Sir Keir Starmer will not return the Elgin Marbles to Greece when he meets his Greek counterpart Kyriakos Mitsotakis at Number 10 today.

The article from Sky News discusses a significant shift in UK policy towards the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has indicated that the UK will focus on strengthening Ukraine's position for future negotiations rather than solely aiming for a military victory over Russia. This change in rhetoric comes as the war approaches its first anniversary, with Sunak emphasizing the need for a "just and lasting peace" through diplomacy. He highlighted the importance of ensuring Ukraine is in the best possible position to negotiate from a place of strength. This approach includes continued military support but with an increased emphasis on diplomatic efforts. The article also touches on the broader context of international support for Ukraine, mentioning upcoming meetings and the general consensus among Western allies on the need for a negotiated settlement.
