Britain's foreign minister David Lammy, in a visit to Ukraine on February 5, will announce a further 55 million pounds ($68.7 million) in financial support to help put it in the "strongest position possible," reported from Reuters.
During his visit, the second since he became foreign minister last year, Lammy will meet President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and other government figures to discuss how Britain and international partners can continue to support Ukraine.
Lammy's visit comes as Kyiv tries to establish close relations with the new administration of U.S. President Donald Trump, who has said he wants to bring a quick end to the nearly three-year-old war with Russia.
"Our support for Ukraine remains unbreakable," Lammy said. "We are determined to put Ukraine in the strongest possible position, both in its fight against Russia and beyond."
The foreign office said Britain would provide three million pounds for deliveries of Ukrainian grain and other food produce to Syria, with whom Ukraine wants to restore relations after the ouster of Bashar al-Assad, a close Russian ally.
