Prime Minister Keir Starmer has pledged continued British support for Ukraine, according to the BBC. The statement came during a visit by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to London.
Starmer told Zelensky "We are behind you and that will not change," according to the BBC report. The visit occurred as Zelensky sought to strengthen backing from European allies following tensions with Donald Trump.
The BBC does not provide additional details about the specific nature of the row with Trump or the precise commitments Starmer made during the meeting. The report indicates the visit focused on rallying European support for Ukraine at a time when diplomatic relations appeared strained with the American president-elect.
