  "account": "During a meeting with UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham in Kyiv today, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his deep gratitude for Britain's unwavering support during the war. Zelensky emphasized that Britain's support was crucial from the very beginning of the conflict, when many leaders were hesitant. He noted that while others were hesitant, unsure of the outcome, Britain remained steadfast and firm in its support for Ukraine. Zelensky specifically highlighted the importance of Britain standing by Ukraine on Independence Day, a particularly significant day for the country. The President also expressed pleasure in seeing Burnham in Kyiv, attending Independence Day celebrations and participating in the Coalition of the Willing meeting. Burnham, in turn, discussed the importance of imposing sanctions on dual-use goods supply chains to Russia, destroying missiles before they are launched, and assisting Ukraine in developing new technologies.",
  "summary": "President Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine would never forget that the United Kingdom declared its support from the first days of the full-scale war, when others were still hesitating, and has continued to provide assistance.",
