LONDON: Britain cannot ignore the threat posed by Russia, Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Monday, ahead of the publication of a strategic defence review that is expected to call for greater readiness to fight a modern war.

“We cannot ignore the threat that Russia poses. We’ve seen what’s happened in Ukraine just over three years ago,“ Starmer told the BBC, when asked if Britain would have to send troops to fight in a future European conflict.
