4:28Now PlayingRussia is warning of increasing tension with the UK, following its decision to give Ukraine blueprints to build more effective long-range missiles.
The British Prime Minister Andy Burnham visited Kyiv, on the anniversary of its independence from the former Soviet Union, to had over the previously classified details of components used to construct cruise missiles. The information will help Ukraine manufacture its own versions of the Storm Shadow missile.
Mr Burnham compared Ukraine’s fight against Russia to the battle to defeat Nazi Germany, and pledged continuing British support.
President Putin’s spokesman Dmity Peskov said the UK was involved in the war on the side of Ukraine. He said British actions were adding “fuel to the fire” and accused the UK of deliberately sabotaging any progress towards a peace settlement.
Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Dan Johnson in Kyiv and Steve Rosenberg in Moscow.
