The United Kingdom has signed a £2.26 billion ($2.84 billion) loan agreement to support Ukraine's defence capabilities as it continues to battle Russian forces. The deal was signed by UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and Ukrainian Finance Minister Sergii Marchenko, reinforcing Britain's commitment to Kyiv. This comes amid wavering US support and a recent tense exchange between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and former US President Donald Trump. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer welcomed Zelenskyy warmly in London, emphasizing Britain's 'unwavering' support. The loan is expected to be repaid using profits from immobilized Russian sovereign assets.
