The UK Prime Minister spoke to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on July 5 to update on progress and discussions held at G7 and NATO last week.
“President Zelenskyy set out the current situation in Ukraine, and recent Russian advances and the Prime Minister updated him on the latest UK military equipment, including 10 self-propelled artillery systems and loitering munitions, which would be arriving in the coming days and weeks.”
Boris Johnson said that the world was behind Ukraine, and he believed President Zelenskyy’s military could retake territory recently captured by Putin’s forces.
The leaders also discussed the cases of British-born Ukrainian fighters, who had been captured by Russian forces in recent weeks.
Speaking about the recovery and reconstruction conference for Ukraine in Lugano, the UK Prime Minister said he welcomed Ukraine’s rebuild plans and looked forward to the UK hosting next year’s event.
