LONDON, United Kingdom – Boris Johnson, the British Prime Minister, paid a surprise visit to Ukraine on Saturday, where he met with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

According to a government release, Johnson has committed additional military and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine in its fight against Russia’s “special military operation,” which began on February 24.

“It’s an honor to be able to fly to Ukraine today and meet President Zelenskyy in person in Kyiv. “Ukraine has defied the odds and driven Russian soldiers back from Kyiv’s gates, achieving the greatest military feat of the twenty-first century,” Johnson remarked.

“We’re increasing up our own military and economic support, as well as convening a global alliance, to put a stop to this tragedy and ensure Ukraine lives and thrives as a free and sovereign nation,” he continued.

The prime minister announced extra economic support for Ukraine, promising an additional USD500 million (£385 million) in World Bank funding, bringing the total loan guarantee to USD1 billion.

Zelenskyy called the visit “a manifestation of the UK’s strong, considerable, and consistent support for Ukraine” at a joint press conference. It means a lot to us, and we’ll remember it.”

He said he briefed Johnson on the status of the peace talks with Russia, as well as the significance of giving security guarantees to Ukraine.

“We expect that London will play a vital role in attaining peace in Ukraine as part of this process; it will be our collective victory,” he told reporters after the meeting.

The Ukrainian president expressed gratitude to the United Kingdom for maintaining sanctions on Russia and assisting Ukraine in improving its defense capabilities.

Johnson, for one, lauded Ukrainians’ valor in the struggle against Russia, saying, “The world has found new heroes in recent weeks.” And they are Ukraine’s citizens.”

Johnson alleged that Russian forces committed war crimes at Bucha, Irpin, and other Ukrainian cities, causing major harm to Moscow’s prestige.

Following the withdrawal of Russian soldiers from the Kyiv region, Johnson was able to travel to the Ukrainian capital. In recent days, several European politicians, including European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, met with Zelenskyy.

“The United Kingdom leads the way in providing defense assistance to Ukraine. The antiwar coalition’s leader. On Facebook, Andriy Sybiha, deputy head of Ukraine’s president’s office, declared, “We are the leader in sanctions against the Russian aggressor.”

Johnson’s visit to Ukraine comes just a day after the United Kingdom unveiled a fresh £100 million military aid package for Ukraine’s armed forces, which includes armored vehicles, anti-tank and surface-to-air missiles.

The United Kingdom has joined its friends in slapping financial penalties on Russia, as well as punishing President Vladimir Putin, his daughters, and other top officials.
