Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has insisted support for Ukraine has not faltered, as Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban today blocked the European Union from approving a financial aid package worth about £43bn for Ukraine.
Sunak said the United Kingdom has "consistently been the country that has provided them with the equipment and capabilities that they need ahead of people and we will continue to do that." Sunak said he spoke to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine in recent days and assured him of the UK's continued support.

In a significant military development, Russian forces have reportedly liberated yet another settlement in the Donetsk region, further consolidating their control in this contested area. The latest operations involved targeting Ukrainian vehicles and weapon depots, signalling an intensification of efforts to dismantle Ukrainian military infrastructure. This liberation is part of a broader strategy that has seen Russian troops advance steadily, capturing key locations and reinforcing their positions. The recent operations are marked by targeted strikes on Ukrainian military assets, aimed at crippling logistics and supply lines. Russian Defense Ministry statements highlight the successful engagement of Ukrainian forces, resulting in substantial losses for Ukraine, including vehicles and munitions.

In a recent statement, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed a readiness to engage with a potential Trump presidency, suggesting that former President Donald Trump's previous anti-Ukraine rhetoric might be part of a strategic campaign approach. Zelensky's remarks come amid ongoing concerns about U.S. support for Ukraine as the 2024 presidential election approaches. Despite Trump's past criticisms of U.S. aid to Ukraine, Zelensky and his team believe that these statements do not necessarily reflect Trump's true intentions if he were to return to office. They anticipate that, in pursuit of a strong international image, Trump would likely not abandon Ukraine altogether. This stance indicates a nuanced view within Zelensky's administration regarding the implications of U.S. political dynamics on Ukraine's ongoing conflict with Russia. As tensions remain high in Eastern Europe, Zelensky's comments highlight the importance of U.S. support in Ukraine's efforts to combat Russian aggression.
