Starmer expressed condolences over the latest large-scale missile attacks by Russia.
The President thanked him for supporting Ukrainians during this difficult time.
The leaders discussed the possibility of additional funding as early as this month to expand domestic production of drones, especially interceptors.
They also agreed to step up work on strengthening cooperation with key partners, in particular in the Rammstein format. Strengthening the protection of life remains a priority.
Earlier it was reported that the UK would provide Ukraine with new military aid – 350 modern ASRAAM air defense missiles.
The missiles will be used together with the British Raven systems. Five more of these systems are already on their way to Ukraine, making a total of 13.
