Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky welcomed British Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt in Kiev on Thursday and expressed gratitude for the recently announced £500 million defense aid package for Ukraine.
"We paid special attention to the sanction policy. It is important to extend restrictive measures against Russia and make the circumvention of sanctions impossible," Zelensky shared in a statement on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The Ukrainian president previously criticized his European partners for delaying decisions on weapon delivery to Kiev, stressing that Ukraine "cannot afford to wait for allies to make decisions" this year.
