Christopher Luxon and Sir Keir Starmer have reaffirmed the close ties between New Zealand and the UK. 

Luxon says the relationship between the two countries is strong, and he'd like to deepen ties around defence and security. 

The pair discussed their support for Ukraine, with Starmer announcing a multi-million dollar deal to buy Kiwi-made drones. 

Geopolitical Analyst Geoffrey Miller told Francesca Rudkin Ukraine is front and centre of the agenda at the moment, but it鈥檚 not the only thing on it, with trade being another focus.  

However, he says Luxon will need to be careful about what he says about defence, as China will be watching.
