Boris Johnson visits Ukraine on a surprise visit
Standing alongside the Ukrainian President was UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson who made a surprise trip to the war-torn country this weekend. President Zelenskyy has been supportive of foreign leaders visiting the country as the invasion continues as a sign of strength in the face of Russian aggression.
For security reasons, the trip was not announced by the office of the Prime Minister. However, since his arrival spokespeople from 10 Downing Street have said that the visit represents a "show of solidarity" to the Ukrainian people. While in Kyiv, PM Johnson said "I made clear today that the United Kingdom stands unwaveringly with them in this ongoing fight, and we are in it for the long run."
Detailing what he planned to do to support the country when he returned, he said that the British will step "up our own military and economic support and convening a global alliance to bring this tragedy to an end, and ensure Ukraine survives and thrives as a free and sovereign nation."
