The U.K. will provide Ukraine with 55 million pounds ($69 million) in new humanitarian and economic assistance to promote a long-term partnership between the two nations, the British government announced on Feb. 5.<\/p>\n

“This funding for social, humanitarian, and energy programs will strengthen our resilience. And this assistance is very timely right now,” Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha<\/a> said at a press conference with his British counterpart, David Lammy, attended by the Kyiv Independent.<\/p>\n

Lammy is visiting<\/a> Kyiv to discuss continued U.K. support for Ukraine<\/a> as it is about to enter the fourth year of Russia’s full-scale invasion. The U.K. official is expected<\/a> to assess firsthand how British aid is assisting Ukraine on the battlefield and in civilian infrastructure recovery.<\/p>\n

The new funding is part of a broader 100-year partnership agreement<\/a> signed by President Volodymyr Zelensky and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Jan. 16.<\/p>\n

In addition to the financial aid, the U.K. will allocate 3 million pounds ($3.7 million) to supply Ukrainian grain and other food products to Syria<\/a>, working with the World Food Program.<\/p>\n

“Unlike Russian grain supplies to the brutal Assad regime, which attempted to buy favor while burdening Syria with costly debt, this planned support will provide a lifeline to the most vulnerable in Syria,” the British government’s statement read.<\/p>\n

London previously committed<\/a> a record 3 billion pounds ($3.6 billion) in military aid to Ukraine for 2024, including advanced weapons systems and munitions. The first 1.5 billion pounds ($1.8 billion) of a 2.26 billion pound ($2.7 billion) loan under the G7 program will also be released to fund major procurement projects for Ukraine’s defense.<\/p>\n

The loan will be repaid using profits from immobilized Russian assets<\/a>, marking another step in the West’s efforts to use Russia’s frozen funds to finance Ukraine’s war effort and recovery.<\/p>\n

“We have agreed on the need to continue using frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine. In the near future, we will begin utilizing funds from the U.K. loan of more than 2 billion pounds ($2.5 billion) sourced from these assets,” Sybiha said.<\/p>\n
