The UK’s Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Thursday signed an agreement with visiting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, securing a trade partnership after the Brexit transitional period, and strengthening the two countries’ cooperation in political, security, and foreign matters, the UK government said.

The Agreement “delivers the same level of liberalisation in trade, services, and public procurement that businesses currently enjoy under the existing EU-Ukraine Association Agreement,” a statement says.
