LONDON (AP) — President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has received a promise of more missiles and attack drones from Britain to support his battle against Russian forces in Ukraine. Zelenskyy met Monday with U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, a staunch ally. It is the fifth European country Zelenskky has visited in the past three days in his effort to beef up munitions before a counteroffensive. He made an unannounced visit to Paris on Sunday to meet with President Emmanuel Macron, after earlier trips to Germany and Italy, meeting with leaders there as well as Pope Francis. Britain said it would train Ukrainian fighter pilots but not offer any jets.
