Mr Witkoff – who’s main the US ceasefire negotiations with Ukraine and Russia – dismissed Sir Keir’s plans as a “combination of a posture and a pose” in an interview with pro-Trump journalist Tucker Carlson.

He additionally accused the prime minister of adopting the “simplistic” notion that leaders “have all got to be like Winston Churchill”.

“The Russians are going to march across Europe. I think that’s preposterous. We have something called Nato that we did not have in World War Two.”

“I don’t regard Putin as a bad guy”, he mentioned. “I thought that he was straight up with me.”

Sir Ed Davey, talking in Harrogate on Sunday, was extra direct in his criticism of Mr Witkoff’s feedback.

The Liberal Democrat chief mentioned: “And Trump’s so-called ‘special’ envoy might dismiss British leadership as pointless posturing, but we know what it really is.

“Britain main in Europe once more as we now have accomplished within the best moments of our nation’s historical past.”

Ceasefire negotiations between Russia and Ukraine will begin on Monday in Saudi Arabia, and both nations are expected to hold indirect talks mediated by the US.

The hope is that both sides will agree on pausing long-range attacks on energy facilities and civilian infrastructure.

On Sunday, Mr Witkoff expressed optimism ahead of the high-stakes talks, saying he believed Mr Putin is ready to end the conflict.
