KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — David Cameron has traveled to the Ukrainian port of Odesa in his first overseas trip as Britain’s new foreign minister. He has pledged that the U.K. would continue providing military support until Ukraine is victorious in its war with Russia. Cameron, a former prime minister who was appointed this week in a Cabinet shuffle, says he wanted to make the trip to Kyiv his first diplomatic visit, and he met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Wednesday. He told Zelenskyy the U.K. would continue to provide moral and diplomatic support “but above all, the military support that you need not just this year and next year but however long it takes.”
