Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, after weekend talks in Italy, Germany, and France. The Ukrainian leader landed by helicopter at Chequers, the official country retreat of British prime ministers. He thanked Britain for the support it had provided to Ukraine so far.

"We're thankful from all our hearts, from Ukrainians, from our soldiers, we are thankful," Zelenskyy told Sunak. "And this is a privilege to be here."

Sunak said Britain would provide Ukraine with hundreds of air defence missiles and further unmanned aerial systems, including new long-range attack drones with a range of more than 200 km, to be delivered "over the coming months".

"The UK will remain steadfast in supporting Ukraine and its people to defend itself...it is important for the Kremlin to also know that we are not going away. We are here for the long term," Sunak said/

His spokesman said Britain had no plans to send fighter jets to Ukraine, but the country will start to train Ukrainian pilots this summer.
