Old pro-Trump video misrepresents UK anti-Ukraine sentiment

A video claiming to show a recent pro-Donald Trump, anti-Ukraine protest in London is circulating online. The video features crowds waving flags and chanting "We love Trump." It gained attention after a meeting between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, which was described as disastrous. However, this video is not new. Fact-checkers found it was actually recorded in July 2018 during Trump’s visit to the UK while he was president. A reverse image search confirmed its origins and numerous reports from that time. The video reappeared after a tense Oval Office meeting that left the US temporarily suspending support for Ukraine. Trump later reinstated military and intelligence aid for Ukraine after discussions in Saudi Arabia, where Ukraine indicated a willingness to consider a ceasefire. Polls indicate that the majority of British people support Ukraine, with a growing unfavorable view of Trump. Only 19% think Trump is managing the situation well, while 64% believe he is not. Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s popularity has increased due to his support for Ukraine, with his approval rating rising in recent weeks. In contrast, Trump’s unpopularity in the UK has grown to 80%. The claim that the UK government is pushing for war with Russia has been dismissed. The UK government has stated its intention to remain out of the conflict while providing support to Ukraine.
