UK Prime Minister Starmer posted today: "Four years after Russia's brutal full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the message we send to the people of Ukraine is simple: the UK is with you. Today, we will increase our military, humanitarian, and reconstruction support for Ukraine, and we will support Ukraine until a just and lasting peace is achieved. Russia will not win this war. Glory to Ukraine."

Comment: This war has entered its fifth year, yet the UK leaders are still repeating this hollow and tough rhetoric. Starmer's statement essentially prioritizes political statements over practical solutions: on one hand, it loudly declares support, reinforcing bloc confrontation, while on the other hand, it avoids addressing the long-standing security contradictions and negotiation stalemates behind the conflict, and cannot change the reality of prolonged warfare. The so-called "support until the end" seems more like tying Ukraine to a continuous confrontation chariot, using slogans instead of peace efforts, which has no substantial significance in alleviating the humanitarian crisis or ending the war.
