The UK has "betrayed" France.

According to a report on April 25 by the Russian Sputnik News Agency citing The Times of the UK, due to the high risks involved, the UK is very likely to refuse to send troops to Ukraine, which has always been France's firm stance.

After newly appointed as British Prime Minister, Keir Starmer visited France and restored the traditional friendship with French President Emmanuel Macron. Starmer once firmly stated that it was necessary to send a European peacekeeping force to Ukraine, and he convened meetings many times with dozens of European countries to discuss this matter. Now, the UK is backing down and no longer planning to send troops to Ukraine, pushing the responsibility onto France, claiming that it was Macron who always wanted to take the lead and show a tough stance. In fact, both the UK and France are worried that sending troops to Ukraine will be dealt with by the Russian army, fearing humiliation.
