President Volodymyr Zelenskyy arrived at Downing St in London for talks with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Saturday following the Ukrainian leader’s clash with US President Donald Trump.
The two political leaders shared a hug as they met outside the black door of No 10 Downing St. The Prime Minister, who usually stands at the doorstep of No 10, walked towards Zelenskyy to meet him as he arrived. They approached the front door together after exchanging warm words.
“You’re very, very welcome here in Downing Street,” Starmer told Zelensky. “And as you’ve heard from the cheers street outside, you have full backing across the United Kingdom, and we stand with you with Ukraine for as long as it may take.”
