In August, Ukraine received two US-made F16 fighter jets, the first of more than 60 pledged by Nato member states since Biden authorised their supply.
One of the initial pair was destroyed three weeks later in a Russian attack.
On 10 October, UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer pledged his “continued commitment and support” for Ukraine, as he held talks with Zelensky and the Nato secretary-general at Downing Street.
After the meeting, Mr Rutte told BBC News: “It is crucial for Ukraine to prevail,” adding the situation “is not only a problem for Ukraine but also a threat to all of us”.
Zelensky wants Western allies to let his forces use donated weapons to target military logistic targets deep inside Russia.
Asked whether he would support such a development, Mr Rutte said Ukraine could legally hit targets in Russia threatening its safety but the decision was not up to him.
“That is up to the individual allies, to decide how weapons they deliver into Ukraine can be used,” he said.
The UK government is thought to be considering lifting the current restrictions on weapons given to Ukraine – but the US and Germany have not given permission.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has made it clear he would consider such a move an escalation.
