  "account": "Prime Minister Andy Burnham is set to meet with Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky at Downing Street, aiming to mend ties between the two nations. This comes after President Donald Trump announced a deal with Russia to import Russian diesel. During Prime Minister's Questions, Burnham chose not to criticize Trump, instead focusing on repairing relations. He assured Zelensky that he would not leave empty-handed, promising further military and financial support. Burnham also hinted at additional sanctions against Russia and an accelerated delivery of air defence missiles to Kyiv. The UK will also push for increased pressure on Russia, with Chancellor John Healey calling for a ban on Russian liquefied natural gas at IMF meetings. Despite the controversial diesel deal, Zelensky expressed gratitude for the support, though he continued to warn about Russia's ongoing attacks on power plants.",
