       Sir Keir will reportedly announce a new package of support for Ukraine on Monday, ahead of his meeting with Mr Trump on Thursday.

       The US is looking to end the war quickly and has held talks with Russian officials over a peace deal in Saudi Arabia.

       Ukraine was excluded from the talks and Mr Zelensky says he won't accept any deal made without Kyiv's involvement.
