The photo, shared this afternoon on Twitter, shows the Johnson and Zelensky alone in a room with a British and Ukrainian flag beside them.
Reports suggest Johnson flew to the war-torn capital to discuss ways to end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
It comes as Britain agrees to send send 120 armoured cars – including Mastiffs – to Ukraine and more fighter jets to the Russian border in the fightback against Vladimir Putin.
UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said Britain would step up arming the war-torn nation and vowed to do whatever he could to help back those fighting Putin’s troops.
The vehicles were previously used in Afghanistan to withstand Taliban explosives – and can be shipped over via Europe.
They can carry up to eight troops plus another two crew – and can be armed with other weapons too.
The Sun understands that ministers want to send up to 200 of them over time.
Britain will also send another two typhoon jets out to Romania next week to help support the NATO for es out there – joining four already in the region.
