This agreement, referred to as the 'Centennial Agreement,' aims to bolster support for Ukraine amid ongoing challenges. However, concerns have been raised regarding its compatibility with Article 17 of Ukraine's Constitution, which prohibits foreign military bases. The UK government has also announced a £4.5 billion military boost to support Ukraine, which is expected to contribute to UK economic growth and job creation.
