"I am here today to say that the UK will continue to stand with you... until Ukraine has won the peace and security it needs and deserves," Sunak said in a press conference with President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv.
"And then we will stand with you as you rebuild your great country," Sunak added.
"Britain knows what it means to fight for freedom," Sunak said on Twitter. "We are with you all the way..." tweeted Sunak
