Zelensky in UK for first meeting with Burnham
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Britain on July 27 to meet Prime Minister Andy Burnham, who used his first bilateral with a foreign leader to underline London's "unwavering support" for Kiev.
The visit came ahead of Zelensky's trip to Washington on Tuesday, as he makes a new bid to end the four-year war with Russia.
Zelensky is expected to renew calls to boost defence as both Moscow and Kiev intensify drone and missile strikes, with US-led negotiations stuck while Washington's attention has been diverted to the Iran war.
Zelensky and Burnham were to visit a naval base in the southern city of Portsmouth to speak to armed forces personnel involved in training Ukrainian service members.
