PM pledges 'rock-solid' support ahead of Zelenskyy visit after Trump's diesel deal with Russia

Britain will speed up air defence missile deliveries and pursue new sanctions after Russian attacks cut power to hundreds of thousands in Ukraine.

  • On Wednesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy meets British Prime Minister Andy Burnham in London, where Britain announces a £45 million package of surface-to-air missiles to support Ukraine's defense against Russian drones.
  • Prime Minister Andy Burnham stated, "My message to the Ukrainian people could not be clearer," pledging Britain remains committed to backing Ukraine's fight for peace in Europe for as long as necessary.
  • The £45 million shipment targets jet-powered Russian drones, with £10 million of the package fast-tracked to meet urgent Ukrainian defense needs.
  • Britain has criticized the US-Russia diesel deal and calls for continued economic pressure on Moscow, while President Donald Trump recently suggested Zelenskiy should be replaced as Ukraine's leader.
  • Beyond the missile delivery, Burnham has requested officials draft further sanctions and fiscal support, while his ministers lobby allies to ban maritime services supporting Russian liquefied natural gas exports.
