LONDON — British Health Secretary Yvette Cooper said the United Kingdom's government maintains a different stance from President Trump on the Ukraine-Russia conflict, speaking on the BBC's Sunday Morning program.
When asked directly whether she believed Trump wanted Ukraine or Russia to win the war, Cooper repeatedly affirmed that Britain's position diverges from the U.S. President's approach. She did not elaborate on what Trump's current position is or specify how the British government differs.
Britain has provided substantial military, financial and humanitarian aid to Ukraine since Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022.
Trump has previously said he could negotiate an end to the war within 24 hours, a position that contrasts with Western support for Ukraine's defense.
