New British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has arrived in Kiev for his first visit since taking office.
"Since the first days of the war, Ukraine and the United Kingdom have been the strongest allies," Zelensky wrote, posting a video of him receiving Sunak in the snow.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kiev confirmed that the UK will provide a major new air defense package to help protect Ukrainian civilians and critical national infrastructure from the intense barrage of Russian attacks.
£50m defense aid package includes 125 anti-aircraft guns and technology to counter deadly Iranian-supplied drones
, including dozens of radar and anti-drone electronic warfare capabilities.
This follows more than 1,000 new anti-aircraft missiles announced by the Secretary of Defense earlier this month.
"Russia is now trying to reach a brief truce to recover its strength. Some would call it the end of the war", but "the mere end of the war does not guarantee peace": "such a pause will only make the situation worse".
This was stated by the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, in a video speech at the International Security Forum in Halifax posted on Telegram according to which "Russia is now trying to reach a short truce to regain its strength. Some would call it the end of the war ", but "the end of the war alone does not guarantee peace": "such a pause will only make the situation worse".
