"More weapons. We thank our allies for support", - he wrote in Telegram.
Deputy Head of the Office of the President Andriy Sybiga clarified that the leaders of Ukraine and Britain discussed macro-financial and defense support of our state, as well as sanctions against the russian federation and future security guarantees.
"Concerning the conversation with Johnson: a very substantive conversation. It also concerned the macro-financial support of our economy to minimize the negative effects of the war and, most importantly, not to be felt by our citizens.

Of course, they talked about defense support. We are talking about a new phase and the quality of assistance of Ukraine's allies in military assistance. This is heavy machinery. But I think such things love silence. We are confident in our allies", - Interfax-Ukraine quoted Sybiga.
The United Kingdom is looking for ways to transfer anti-ship Brimstone missiles to Ukraine. In particular - to install them on vehicles.
