Europe is "losing" the US, but "gaining" Britain

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has signaled a possible shift in the United Kingdom's foreign policy, stressing that in an increasingly unstable world, the country's long-term interest requires a closer partnership with Europe and the European Union.

At a press conference, Starmer acknowledged that facing global challenges will not be easy, while underlining that the government will continue to protect British national interests.

"As the world continues on this unsustainable path, it is increasingly clear that our long-term interest requires a closer partnership with our allies in Europe and with the European Union," he declared.

Starmer's statements come at a time of tension in transatlantic relations, particularly following the Donald Trump administration's stances towards European allies in the context of the conflict with Iran.

Although Starmer has previously insisted that Britain should not choose between the US and Europe, his latest comments suggest a gradual shift towards Brussels. He also hinted at greater alignment with EU standards, a move that could be interpreted as a form of “softer membership” of the single market, although this remains uncertain due to reservations from the EU itself.

The Hormuz Initiative and doubts over its effectiveness

At the same conference, Starmer announced that the UK is hosting a meeting with around 35 countries to discuss keeping the Strait of Hormuz, a key point for global oil trade, open.

However, it remains unclear what concrete impact this initiative could have, as the participating countries are not expected to be directly involved in the conflict. Any potential operations would be more likely to be after the war ends and limited to activities such as clearing naval mines.

Analysts see this moment as potentially significant for British foreign policy after Brexit. While it is not about an immediate return to the EU, Starmer's approach suggests a strategy of gradual and careful change.

If this line is to materialize, it could mark a reformatting of the United Kingdom's relations with Europe, at a time when global balances are shifting and traditional alliances are being tested.
