AS tensions rise between Europe and the US over a Ukraine peace deal, Britain and its allies have allegedly pledged to send billions more in aid to President Zelensky, according to a report.
The UK is reportedly set to funnel an extra £1.5 billion into “keeping Ukraine in the fight” until a peace deal can be agreed with Russia after Donald Trump blasted Zelensky as a “dictator”.

The Mirror has been told by Western officials that the UK will send a total of £4.5billion to Ukraine this year after boosting the nation with £3billion each year since the conflict began in 2022.
The additional funding to “keep Ukraine in the fight until they get peace” will be taken from unfrozen Russian assets.
It is thought that the aid will help Ukraine find “peace through strength”.
President Trump unleashed a blistering attack on Zelensky on his Truth Social account on Wednesday calling him a “dictator” and a “moderately successful” comedian.
The 78-year-old accused the President of having “talked the US into a war that couldn’t be won”.
