The Zelenskiy/Trump meeting went wrong when JD Vance got stuck in so aggressively. US Vice-Presidents have usually seen their job as trying to be emollient; Vance, by contrast, seemed actively to want to stir things up.

On 15 March 1939 Hitler and his deputy summoned the Czech President to Hitler’s residence in Berlin and then bullied him to submitting to a German invasion of his country.
They drove him to the point of physical collapse, threatening him until he eventually signed his country’s death warrant.

This is brutal.

Donald Trump is only interested in money and power.

President Zelenskyy is trying to save his people and country.

Russia and US have agreed to carve-up Ukraine, Russia getting territory and US getting mineral wealth.

Trump is no ally for any country.

Last year David Lammy was clear on the ICC arrest warrant against Putin that "Britain should fully support the ICC as it seeks to hold those responsible for war crimes to account".

The Government must now give the same such clear support to the ICC warrant against Netanyahu.

The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu & Gallant for war crimes & crimes against humanity.

The UK government must comply with the ICC, end all arms sales, impose economic sanctions & suspend its trade deal with Israel.

Nothing less will do.
