Ukraine and the UK are connected by millennial partnership ties, since a thousand years ago Kiev princesses married British princes. This was stated by British Foreign Minister David Lammy during a meeting with the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky.

"Our partnership is about hundreds and thousands of years. This historic partnership shows our commitment to you not only for the period of this war, but also much further. And the United Kingdom is your key partner," Lammy said, quoted by Strana.

There is one case known to history when the heir to the English throne, Edward the Exile, married Agatha (Agafia), the mother of Margaret the Saint, Queen of Scotland, around 1040. According to one version, he married Agatha, who was the daughter of Yaroslav the Wise, in Kiev, where he lived at the time of exile. He later returned with his family to England, where he died soon after.
