“The UK is the leader in defense support for Ukraine. The leader in the anti-war coalition. The leader in sanctions against the Russian aggressor,” – Sybiha stressed.
“I made clear today that the United Kingdom stands unwaveringly with them in this ongoing fight, and we are in it for the long run. We are stepping up our own military and economic support and convening a global alliance to bring this tragedy to an end, and ensure Ukraine survives and thrives as a free and sovereign nation,” – Boris Johnson said.
Mr. Johnson also confirmed further economic support, taking total UK loan guarantees to £770m.
“Over the last few hours I’ve been able to see quite a lot of your beautiful country and it’s an amazing country. I’ve also seen the tragic effects of the war, an inexcusable war, and absolutely inexcusable and unnecessary war.”
Boris Johnson offered Ukraine military assistance in the form of 120 armored vehicles and new anti-ship missile systems to support Ukraine at this crucial stage, while Russia’s illegal offensive continues.
