Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer in London, where they signed a £2.26 billion loan agreement to strengthen Ukraine's defense. The loan will be repaid using funds from sanctioned Russian assets. The meeting was a stark contrast to Zelenskyy's tense discussions with U.S. President Donald Trump on the same topic. Zelenskyy expressed gratitude for the UK’s continuous support, while Starmer reaffirmed the country's commitment to Ukraine's defense. This agreement comes just before a key European summit on a potential Ukraine peace plan.
