Burnham’s blunt four-word response to claim UK is adding ‘fuel to fire’ in Ukraine

Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestylePrime minister Andy Burnham dismissed Moscow's claims that Britain is fuelling the Ukraine conflict, asking "Who started the fire?" during a visit to Kyiv. Russia warned of retaliation following the UK's announcement to provide Ukraine with long-range missile blueprints and drones to support its defence efforts. Marking his first foreign trip as Prime Minister, Burnham's visit coincided with the 35th anniversary of Ukraine's independence from the Soviet Union. Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky presented Burnham with an award for British support, asserting that Ukraine will not submit to Russian aggression. Burnham pledged that Russian threats would not deter the UK from aiding Ukraine as he prepared to chair a meeting of an Anglo-French coalition.
