Sir Keir Starmer has chatted with schoolchildren in Kyiv on his first visit to the country since he became prime minister in July. On the visit he met his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy to sign a new agreement which sets out co-operation between the countries that will stretch into the next century. One pupil asked Starmer to reveal his favourite football player, to which the Arsenal fan replied that it was Martin Ødegaard and that his "all-time favourite Arsenal player is Thierry Henry". Starmer also revealed that his favourite book is 'Roy of the Rovers', admitting all his books are about football. Report by Brooksl.

A Russian drone flew over Kyiv’s Mariinsky Palace on January 16, just minutes after the UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer arrived for high-stakes talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The drone incursion took place during the diplomatic visit, raising fears that it could have been an assassination attempt. Explosions were heard at 12:20 p.m. as Ukraine's air defense forces attempted to intercept the drone above the presidential residence. While no casualties or fires were reported, debris from the downed drone fell across five districts of Kyiv.
