Outgoing British Prime Minister Boris Johnson visited Ukrainian troops training in the United Kingdom, in a video released by Downing Street on July 23.

"I just want you to know that the people of the United Kingdom support the people of Ukraine and support you in your fight. And I am absolutely convinced that you can win and that you will win," said Johnson.

The prime minister said he has been meeting with some of the 400 Ukrainian troops being trained by the U.K.’s forces in order to fight back home against Russia’s deadly invasion.

Johnson added the U.K. would like to train about 10,000 Ukrainian troops over the next four months, in addition to supporting Ukraine with weaponry — 6,900 anti-tank weapons, 120 armoured vehicles, multiple rocket launch systems and more.
