Within 48 hours of being appointed, new Labour Defence Secretary John Healey has travelled to Odesa and pledged new military supplies to Ukraine. He has also indicated he will expedite previously announced aid.
Defence Secretary John Healey has met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, with the Labour government making a new pledge on sending arms to Ukraine. The Labour minister has already travelled to Ukraine, having been appointed on Friday to his new role. During his visit to Odesa, he met with President Zelenskyy and Ukraine's defence minister Rustem Umerov.
'Our commitment to stand with the Ukrainian people is absolute, as is our resolve to confront Russian aggression and pursue Putin for his war crimes. 'This government is steadfast in our commitment to continue supplying military assistance and will stand shoulder to shoulder with our Ukrainian friends for as long as it takes.' The UK has provided more than £7.6bn to Ukraine in the form of military support since Russia invaded in early 2022.
