UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has called on Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the war and withdraw his troops from Ukraine, according to The Guardian.

Starmer stated that Putin's "irresponsible rhetoric" regarding nuclear weapons is "not going to deter our support for Ukraine".

"We’re now on day 1,000 of a conflict, that’s 1000 days of Russian aggression, 1,000 days of sacrifices in Ukraine. We have stood with Ukraine from the start. I’ve been doubling down in my clear message that we need to ensure Ukraine has what is needed for as long as needed to win this war against Putin," said Starmer.

In a direct address to the Russian President, Starmer said: "On day 1,000 of Russia’s illegal war in Ukraine, I say again: End the war. Get out of Ukraine."

Recently, Prime Minister Keir Starmer also stated that he does not plan to speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin. At the same time, he called on allies to double efforts to strengthen support for Ukraine.
