Rishi Sunak and Volodymyr Zelensky sign security agreement in Kyiv

Rishi Sunak has vowed that Ukraine "will never be alone" as the UK announced £2.5bn of military aid to Ukraine over the coming year.
It is the UK's largest annual commitment since Russia's full invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
The PM made the announcement as he met President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv and signed the new agreement.
Mr Sunak said that the support was vital because if Vladimir Putin "wins in Ukraine, he will not stop there".
Officials said the package will provide Ukraine with long-range missiles, air defence and artillery shells. Some £200m will be spent on drones.
They said the military package - for the next financial year beginning in April - would result in the largest delivery of drones, most of which will be UK-made, to Ukraine by any country.
Significantly, the prime minister has decided not to make a financial commitment lasting several years.

[@BowserLucaTheThird]

​@@philipellis4530saying it doesn't make it true and I can't find supporting evidence for your claim. He's significantly reduced corruption part of the reason Putin invaded is because that's a big problem for him as one of the world's worst leaders for stealing his nations assets, even Elon Musk recently said that Putin is richer than he is. Putin had been stealing money out of Ukraine until Zelensky showed up. This has more to do with Putin's pocket than anything else.

Where is the U.S.? Since Ukraine's independence, the United States, together with Russia, used both soft and hard tactics to force Ukraine to give up nuclear weapons, long-range weapons, and long-range bombers, etc., to exchange so-called "security guarantees" for Ukraine. However, U.S. did nothing 8 years ago, did nothing but suggested to flee even when Ukraine faced Russians' full-scale war to take over Ukraine 2 year ago. They simply pulled out all teeth out of a baby and put her next to a polar bear, watching her being attacked once, twice and more. It is the huge blunders and crimes that U.S. hypocritic politicians committed to the Ukraine and Ukraine people simply due to the U.S. 's deep-rooted nucleophobia and Russophobia！
