What makes you think that?

They’re preparing for deployment asap pretty much

I suspect it will be, “here is our final offer, get on board or face the consequences”. I do wonder whether Europe and Canada are going to try and apply any sort of leverage over Trump or whether they have already accepted that they will have to go it alone. If the latter happens I predict a full on meltdown from Trump that will make his Zelenskyy interaction look sane.

Thank you for posting these and yes absolutely, this is the overarching four-point strategy that he outlined.

I was summarising the points specifically with respect his comments on Trump and the USA’s involvement, perhaps I should have made that clear.

I think there is a lot more to it than what is being presented. We’re getting the “carrot” version of things, there will almost certainly be a “stick” that will be presented, and Starmer will outline the grave consequences of the USA not cooperating.

It was interesting that Starmer seemed so confident that Trump would agree. This means either he’s hugely bluffing to put on a show, or the nice guy show to Trump is over and they can get him to bend by force.
