Thousands of delegates from business, government and civil society groups have gathered for the conference, which Mr Sunak hailed in an opening address as an opportunity to “plant the seeds of Ukraine’s future”. “By the way, Prime Minister Rishi, we have not seen each other in Kyiv for quite a while.” Mr Sunak responded: “Thank you, Volodymyr, not least for providing options for my summer holiday in a couple of months.” Former prime minister Boris Johnson, who has been a vocal backer of Ukraine since leaving office, called for the West to focus on “ensuring a Ukrainian victory” and equip Kyiv with F-16 fighter jets. Let’s talk about the Ukrainian recovery, but the absolute pre-requisite of that conversation is ensuring a Ukrainian victory, and a Ukrainian victory as fast as possible.” Foreign ministers from around the world addressed delegates on Wednesday morning, with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken among those pledging backing for Kyiv as leaders stressed the importance of the private sector and foreign investment in the redevelopment of Ukraine.
