Why Starmer was quiet on Venezuela but bold against Trump on Greenland
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story. The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.Your support makes all the difference."
"The Labour government came into office promising to use realist means to pursue progressive ends. US president Donald Trump's recent actions over Venezuela and Greenland have tested Keir Starmer's ability to deliver on that promise. When the prime minister said he had been a lifelong advocate of international law there was a reasonable expectation that he would condemn the US action in Venezuela. Some feared that his ambiguity on that issue was a betrayal of progressive values."
The Independent covers reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech while investigating political and financial influence such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC. The outlet produces documentary work highlighting American women fighting for reproductive rights and relies on donations to fund reporters who gather perspectives from both sides. The outlet emphasizes trust across the political spectrum and rejects paywalls to keep journalism accessible, asking those who can afford it to contribute. In UK politics, the Labour government pledged realist means for progressive ends, and US actions over Venezuela and Greenland tested Keir Starmer's ability to maintain US cooperation for Ukrainian security negotiations through strategic ambiguity.
