As a result of the elections held in Great Britain, Rishi Sunak lost the elections, and the new Prime Minister Keir Starmer took over the government instead. How will Starmer, who is the head of the Labor party, come to the fore in the political arena, affect London's foreign policy?
Speaking to Ednews on the subject, political expert Patrick Walsh said that the new Prime Minister will basically keep the same political course in foreign policy:
"There is unlikely to be no change in foreign policy with the new Labour Government in the UK. The previous leader of the party, Jeremy Corbyn, was strongly pro-Palestinian and anti-war. His successor, Keir Starmer, has distanced himself from his predecessor and is likely to maintain the pro-Israel and pro-Kyiv position of the Conservatives.
The UK is very much the junior partner of the US these days and Washington is really all that matters. The Presidential election in November will be the real turning point in Western foreign policy if there is one. Policy toward the South Caucasus will remain unchanged. It will only change if the geopolitical conflict with Russia assumes a greater intensity."
