Trump's joke about Russia humiliates Starmer at meeting
President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Keir Starmer met at the White House, where Trump made a joke about Russia that left the room laughing. This moment occurred after Starmer praised the US-UK alliance. During the discussion, Trump claimed that European nations received their money back for aid to Ukraine, prompting Starmer to clarify that much of the support was gifted. This exchange followed similar interactions between Trump and other European leaders. Starmer's response to Trump's comments has drawn public support, with comparisons to French President Emmanuel Macron, who also corrected Trump on the issue of financial aid to Ukraine.
