UK Foreign Secretary pledges full support for Ukraine amid rising tensions with Russia

news.yahoo.com November 22, 2024, 06:01 AM UTC

The UK Foreign Secretary has pledged ongoing support for Ukraine amid escalating tensions with Russia. This follows Russian President Vladimir Putin's threat to target the UK after using a new ballistic missile against Ukraine, claiming it was in response to Western military aid. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the missile strike on Dnipro as a significant escalation in the conflict. He urged global leaders to respond firmly to prevent further Russian aggression, warning that a lack of action could lead to more attacks beyond Ukraine. The UK and France reaffirmed their commitment to assist Ukraine in achieving a lasting peace. They emphasized the need to counter Putin's aggression, which they view as a challenge to international order established after World War II.
