LONDON (Reuters) - British Foreign Minister David Lammy said on Saturday he would encourage U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to deepen their partnership in the future.

"I would encourage Donald Trump and the Ukrainians to look very carefully at a deepening partnership over the next generations," Lammy said at the Munich Security Conference.

Britain and Ukraine signed a landmark 100-year partnership agreement last month to deepen security ties and strengthen their countries' relationship.

Lammy said the best security guarantee for Ukraine against future Russian aggression was binding U.S. industry, business and defence capability into its future.

"That is what will make Putin sit up and pay attention, and that is what's attractive to a U.S. president who knows how to get a good deal," Lammy added.
