By Olena Harmash KYIV (Reuters) -British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Thursday he would give Ukraine the support it needed to put it in the strongest position to fight Russia in 2025, saying before talks in Kyiv with President Volodymyr Zelenskiy: "We mustn't let up".

Sir Keir Starmer has vowed to put Ukraine in the "strongest possible position" this year during his first trip to Kyiv as Prime Minister. The Labour leader’s visit to the presidential palace in the capital coincided with a drone attack by Vladimir Putin ’s forces on the city.

Arriving on Thursday morning, he accompanied Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to lay flowers at a wall of remembrance for those killed in the war with Russia - telling reporters the UK will "never let up" on giving the necessary support to Ukraine.

Britain has been at the forefront of western countries offering military support for Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion began in February 2022, but the question of whether the UK would put troops on the ground to help guarantee any peace deal will be a big test for Starmer.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer pledged on Thursday to work with Ukraine and allies to offer Kyiv robust security guarantees if a ceasefire is negotiated with Russia, offering more support to President Volodymyr Zelenskiy with a 100-year partnership deal.
