British Prime Minister Boris Johnson followed in the footsteps of EU Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen and arrived in Kyiv today in a surprise visit to meet with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy and top government officials. The UK has been a stalwart supporter of Ukraine during the war, having provided essential military hardware such as the NLAW anti-tank weapons system that has wrecked havoc on Russian armoured units.
Johnson and Zelenskyy, including their heavily armed escort, went on a walking tour of central Kyiv in a show of defiance. The visit by the British prime minister was received extremely well by Ukrainians who have been grateful for British support and the show of solidarity.
