"My government will continue to give full support to Ukraine and its people, and will seek to play a leading role in providing Ukraine with a clear path to NATO membership," Charles III said.
The monarch also added that the new government will seek to reset relations with European partners and work to improve the UK's trade and investment relations with the European Union.
"My ministers will seek a new security pact to strengthen cooperation on the mutual threats faced by the United Kingdom and the European Union," he said.
