The joint trip comes at a critical time for Ukraine, said Blinken. Russia is intensifying its aggression against civilians, important infrastructure and the Ukrainian military. "We are seeing it increase its attacks on cities, people and in particular energy infrastructure ahead of the cold months," said the US Secretary of State.
Blinken traveled to the British capital at the beginning of the week to discuss deepening cooperation with London. He also plans to meet British Prime Minister Keir Starmer there, who is expected to visit the US capital Washington at the end of the week.
