Pressure on Allies

Former UK Prime Minister David Cameron is urging allies to increase financial support for Ukraine as the country marks the second anniversary of Russia's invasion. The Foreign Secretary is putting pressure on the US to step up.

"Show me the money!"

Cameron, along with his Polish counterpart Radek Sikorski, emphasizes the importance of increased funding for Ukraine. They highlight the need for more ammunition, training, sanctions, and seizing of Russian assets to support Ukraine's defense.

Britain's Commitment

Britain announces a new £245 million munitions package to provide Ukrainian troops with artillery firepower, in addition to the £12 billion in aid sent to Kyiv since 2022.

Pushing America to Act

Lord Cameron's assertive demands for increased US support have caused some backlash, with one Congresswoman telling him to "kiss my ass." Despite this, Cameron continues to pressure the US at the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

Resilience of Ukraine

PM Rishi Sunak affirms the UK's commitment to supporting Ukraine until it prevails, while Chief of the Defence Staff Admiral Sir Tony Radakin praises Ukraine's transformation into a formidable fighting force.
