Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited London on Wednesday, meeting King Charles III at Buckingham Palace and British Prime Minister Andy Burnham at Downing Street, where an Irish Guards honor guard greeted him. The trip highlighted UK backing for Kyiv amid tensions with Washington after President Donald Trump’s diesel agreement with Russia. Burnham assured Zelensky of continued British backing, discussed a Trump ceasefire proposal centered on energy, and said Russia had kept striking Ukraine’s infrastructure. Burnham also said he had asked ministers to assess further measures for aiding Ukraine. He is expected to announce quicker delivery of military assistance and new sanctions targeting Moscow. The visit came as Trump suggested Ukraine might need new leadership, worries emerged over intelligence sharing from Washington, and Zelensky said his government had not been forewarned of Russian strikes Monday and Tuesday.
