Details: Britain is expected to send a positive message to Ukraine during the day
British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss will announce on Wednesday that she wants Britain and other countries in the West to send fighter jets to Ukraine.
BBC News reported that the foreign minister will announce his decision in a speech later on Wednesday.
The plan is seen as part of Britain’s long-term military support to Ukraine.
We must go further
The BBC knows it will say in its letter that the West must gather strength and be ready to move forward with its military support for Ukraine.
Britain’s expected announcement is very positive news for Ukraine.
You asked for delivery
The country has previously appealed on several occasions for the delivery of combat aircraft. Especially Soviet-era combat aircraft, as Ukrainian pilots are familiar with handling such aircraft.
Western allies were previously reluctant to respond to Ukraine’s call. The fear that the delivery of fighter jets would provoke Russia was the main argument behind the rejection of the Ukrainian appeal.
Several heavy weapons
But as NATO members increase their support, Liz Truss is expected to announce that allies must go even further in their support, the BBC reports.
According to the news channel, she is expected to say that Western powers need to dig deeply into their arsenals and provide Ukraine with more heavy weapons such as tanks and planes.
Stop Russian Energy
The BBC has learned that the foreign minister is also expected to demand a complete halt to the import of Russian oil and gas into Europe.
Moreover, Truss will state that she wants to see a “reboot” of the international security system, which she believes has failed in light of developments in Ukraine.
complete transformation
Liz Truss’ anticipated announcement comes shortly after Germany turned and decided to send advanced weapons to Ukraine.
German Foreign Minister Christine Lambrecht confirmed the decision on Tuesday. Germany will send the Gibbard air defense system to Ukraine
Public advertising is said to be a tactic on the German side. The German government wants to soften criticism against the country’s reluctance to send weapons and wants to show Germany has swung on the issue, according to several German media reports.
