According to Ukrinform, The Guardian reported this.
"You have seen the solidarity and the support you have got from everybody here in Britain. We are behind you and that will not change," the British prime minister said as he welcomed Zelensky to Downing Street.
He added that the past few days had been "dark and difficult" for Ukraine, which had suffered massive bombardments, and expressed his condolences to those who had lost loved ones.
Burnham also said that Zelensky was ready to discuss U.S. President Donald Trump's proposal for an energy truce, while Russia continued attacking Ukraine's critical infrastructure.
"In these moments, Britain will continue to provide you with whatever support we can," Burnham assured him.
Zelensky expressed his gratitude for the United Kingdom's support.
"Our people, we survived and continue to do this because we have strong partners and I'm very proud that we have one of the strongest partners in our history and it's your people, Andy," the Ukrainian leader said.
Burnham also said that London was accelerating deliveries of British-made air defense systems so they could be deployed as quickly as possible. The UK prime minister urged ministers to do everything possible to support Ukraine and consider every available option for assistance.
"All of the people of Ukraine have our support. There are such connections between our two countries. We will forever stand by you through this difficult time," Burnham said.
Zelensky noted that he would discuss difficulties with intelligence sharing and access to Starlink with Burnham.

He noted that Russia continued launching ballistic missiles and hundreds of Iranian drones, and that the proposed energy truce had never materialized. According to the president, Russia's actions appeared to constitute an escalation, while Ukraine continued to seek an end to the war.
As Ukrinform previously reported, President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in the United Kingdom for a visit. During an audience with King Charles III, he thanked the monarch for his unwavering support for Ukraine.
