The purpose of the article is to trace the nature, main directions, and components of Ukrainian-British cooperation in the context of Russia’s large-scale aggression.
The research methodology is based on the scientific principles of historicism, objectivity, alternative and social approach, and scientific methods — historical-comparative and historical-systemic.
The novelty of the work lies in the reproduction of current events, processes, and phenomena in relations between the states against the background of Russian aggression against Ukraine.
The main results of the study: the article analyzes the evolutionary processes in Ukrainian-British relations, the main areas of cooperation between the countries and ways of its implementation in the context of large-scale Russian aggression; traces the immutability of the course of comprehensive support for Ukraine by representatives of the British authorities, which is confirmed by new initiatives every week; identifi es the personal role of state and political leaders of the United Kingdom in the process of forming and implementing international support for Ukraine. Conclusions. A qualitatively new stage in the dialogue between Ukraine and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland was marked by the events of 2013—2014, which demonstrated the readiness of official London to provide comprehensive consolidated assistance to the Ukrainian people in the diplomatic, financial, economic, military, and humanitarian sectors. The political philosophy followed by the UK in the current situation is based on the perception of Russia as a state that is trying to unbalance the world and thus strengthen their power in it. Under these circumstances, official London, having proclaimed the strategy of “global Britain”, which aims to remain an influential player in the international arena now outside the EU, sees Ukraine as a reliable partner in the implementation of a common security policy in the context of Brexit. Prospects for further research include a thorough analysis of strategic Ukrainian-British relations, specifically the formation of a trilateral alliance between Britain, Ukraine, and Poland, designed to unite the efforts of the three countries to counter the Russian threat and work together for the future of European security.
