UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss has stated that Ukraine’s allies need to double their support for the country in its fight against Russian aggression.

“We’ve got to double down on our support for Ukraine. And we must also follow through on the unity shown in the crisis. We must reboot, recast and remodel our approach. The war in Ukraine is our war – it is everyone’s war because Ukraine’s victory is a strategic imperative for all of us”, - she said.

The UK foreign secretary also said that Britain and other Western countries should provide warplanes to Ukraine.

“Heavy weapons, tanks, aeroplanes – digging deep into our inventories, ramping up production. We need to do all of this. Our sanctions have already seen Russia facing its first external debt default for a century. We need to go further. There must be nowhere for Putin to fund this appalling war. That means cutting off oil and gas imports once and for all”, - she said.

At the same time, Truss noted that support to the Ukrainian people should be also delivered: “It means helping refugees, it means delivery of food, medicine, and other essentials, and it means keeping the economy afloat”.
