Summary
The UK signed a 100-year partnership with Ukraine during Sir Keir Starmer‘s visit to Kyiv, pledging sustained economic, military, and humanitarian support.
The agreement includes a new mobile air defense system, expanded troop training, and collaboration on healthcare and maritime security.
Amid Russian drone attacks during the visit, Starmer reaffirmed backing for Ukraine’s NATO membership and security guarantees.
President Zelensky praised the UK’s commitment as vital, especially with concerns over potential reduced US support under the incoming Trump administration.
The treaty will be presented to Parliament soon.
There’s a contract from 1648 that still pays interest today because the company that issued it still exists. Unless Ukraine or the UK cease to exist in 100 years this contract will absolutely be enforced.
I’m not doubting if it’ll be enforced or not. But like that 300+ year contract, what is the significance of the 100 year limit? How was it decided? WHY NOT 400 Billion year deals!?!?! If you’re going to tell me that’s too long, I’d like to know how 100 years isn’t too long as well
