“Sunak will be in Washington on Wednesday and Thursday next week for meetings with Biden, members of Congress and US business leaders,” the statement said.
It is noted that Sunak will make his first official visit to Washington since he was appointed prime minister in October. He wants to mend relations with the US after they were strained by the UK’s exit from the European Union in 2020.
The representative of the British Prime Minister added that the leaders of the countries will have the opportunity to discuss various issues, including support for Ukraine.
Aid to Ukraine from the US and Britain
The United States of America tomorrow, May 31, announces the transfer of military assistance to Ukraine as part of a new package. It will include Zuni missiles.
Also recently, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak will announce the transfer of hundreds of air defense missiles and new long-range attack drones from the UK to Ukraine.
CNN previously reported that the UK has donated several Storm Shadow cruise missiles to Ukraine, giving Ukrainian forces new strike capability ahead of a counteroffensive. Later, the UK officially confirmed the transfer of Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine. The missiles were handed over free of charge.
