Zelensky hails British leadership as UK defence minister visits Kyiv
Ben Wallace visits capital two months after English Prime Minister Borish Johnson
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky hailed British leadership and its assistance for Kyiv against Russia’s attack during talks on Friday with British Defence Secretary Ben Wallace in the Ukrainian capital.
Wallace, visiting Kyiv two months after Prime Minister Boris Johnson, praised Zelensky for his own leadership during a crisis in which Britain has provided Ukraine with weapons and financial assistance and has imposed sanctions on Russia.
“I am grateful in general to Great Britain, the government and the prime minister,” Zelensky, looking relaxed in a dark T-shirt, told Wallace at the presidential headquarters.
“The war highlights who is our friend or friends — not just strategic friends, but real friends now. And I believe Great Britain is a friend.”
“Arms, money and sanctions — these are three things in which Great Britain consistently demonstrates its leadership,” he said.
Wallace said Zelensky was “doing amazing, amazing.”
He visited Kyiv a day after two Britons and a Moroccan were sentenced to death by a court in the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic - whose separatist leaders are backed by Moscow - after being captured while fighting for Ukraine.
