Britain will be the first country to provide Ukraine with long-range weapons
"In the coming months, we will provide Ukraine with as many weapons as in the whole of 2022," Sunak said
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said that in the coming months, Western partners will provide Ukraine with as many weapons as in the entire previous year.
Source. He said this in a speech at the Munich Security Conference, published on the British government's website.
Details. "In the next few months, together we will deliver as much equipment as we did in the whole of 2022," the politician promised.
"Together we must help Ukraine protect its cities from Russian bombs and Iranian drones. That is why the UK will be the first country to provide Ukraine with long-range weapons," Sunak said.
"To win the war, Ukraine needs more artillery, armored vehicles and air defense systems," the politician noted.
He also said that last year the UK allocated 2.6 billion euros to help Kyiv, and this year it will allocate the same or more.
Sunak said that the world should hold Russia accountable for the crimes committed in Ukraine and for the "terrible destruction".
"We must get justice through the ICC (International Criminal Court) for their heinous war crimes committed in Bucha, Irpen, Mariupol, or anywhere else," the British prime minister concluded.
Background. Earlier in February, Sunak promised that the British would start training Ukrainian pilots to fly modern NATO fighter jets. Sunak will also offer training for marines.
