London, July 10 (RHC)-- U.S. President Joe Biden declared the U.S.-U.K. relationship is “rock solid” as he meets with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in London today, ahead of the two-day NATO summit in Vilnius, Lithuania.
Over the weekend, Sunak told reporters the U.K. opposes cluster munitions as a signatory to the international convention banning their use. Biden’s decision to send cluster bombs to Ukraine has sparked intense criticism, including from the United Nations, due to the danger they pose to civilians.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is stepping up his campaign for NATO membership. Zelensky said he hopes to expedite Ukraine’s accession to NATO and “get clear security guarantees” during this week’s summit.
