“British Prime Minister Keir Starmer stated while speaking at the European Political Community summit in Yerevan that European countries must respond collectively to pressure from the administration of US President Donald Trump”
DISPUTED
The claim states Keir Starmer spoke at the European Political Community summit in Yerevan. However, Wikipedia evidence explicitly states that the 4th European Political Community Summit was held on 18 July 2024 at Blenheim Palace in Woodstock, United Kingdom, not Yerevan. Additionally, the provided web search results for this claim are completely irrelevant (discussing teacher unions in Rajasthan, India), providing no support for the event described.
