The interlocutors coordinated positions on the implementation of joint multilateral and bilateral initiatives, in particular in the context of promoting the Ukrainian peace formula and developing security guarantees.

Particular attention was paid to the issues of Euro-Atlantic integration of Ukraine and Great Britain's support for Ukraine's progress towards NATO membership.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, in late October, Great Britain promised to increase the amount of military aid it provides to Ukraine, and the country also plans to cooperate with other allies to provide Kyiv with the necessary support.

On November 13, London announced changes in the composition of the government. In particular, former British Prime Minister David Cameron headed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and his predecessor in this position, James Cleverly, moved to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
