Sir Keir Starmer stated that the UK will continue to support Ukraine despite Russia's nuclear threats. He emphasized that the situation reflects a broader struggle for the UK's way of life amid fears of World War Three. On the 1,000th day of the Ukraine war, Vladimir Putin revised Russia's nuclear doctrine, declaring that any conventional attack on Russia, supported by a nuclear power, would be treated as a joint attack. This follows the U.S. allowing Ukraine to use long-range missiles against Russia. Experts express concern over the implications of Putin's rhetoric. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak reiterated the UK's commitment to Ukraine, dismissing Russian threats as irresponsible and affirming the need for continued support in the conflict.
