Dozens of people gathered outside the US embassy in Nine Elms, London, on Wednesday evening to protest Washington's decision to cosy up to Russia. Many of the pro-Ukraine protesters carried Ukrainian flags and placards showing their solidarity to the government in Kyiv, Ukrainians and Volodymyr Zelensky.
The protesters were heard chanting “Russian troops out” and “Russia is a terrorist state”. One of the banners being held up by the protesters read "Trump is a Russian asset", while others read "Stop Trump" and “occupation is not peace. Justice for Ukraine”. The protest was organised by the Ukraine Solidarity Campaign, Ukrainian organisations and John McDonnell MP.
