UK promises Ukraine more weapons, angering Russia

Al Jazeera  

Zelenskyy secures pledges of further arms as Ukraine prepares to step up assaults against Russian occupiers. Sunak’s office said that Britain was set to confirm it was giving Ukraine hundreds more air defence missiles, as well as “long-range attack drones” with a range of more than 200km. Zelenskyy, on his second trip to the UK since Russia invaded his country in February 2022, thanked his staunch ally and said the war was a matter of “security not only for Ukraine, it is important for all of Europe.” Sunak told Zelenskyy that “your leadership, your country’s bravery and fortitude are an inspiration to us all”. The Kremlin said it took London’s promise to supply Ukraine with more weapons “extremely negatively”, but at the same time believed the supplies would not drastically change the course of the war. Earlier, the office of French President Emmanuel Macron said his country would supply dozens of light tanks, armoured vehicles and more air defence systems “in the weeks ahead”, without giving specific numbers.
