Ukraine may use weapons from Britain to strike targets inside Russia, Foreign Secretary Cameron says
Ukraine may use weapons provided by the United Kingdom to strike targets on the territory of Russia, British Foreign Secretary David Cameron said in a comment to Reuters.
He is convinced that it is Kyiv that should decide whether to attack targets in the Russian Federation.
"Ukraine has that right. Just as Russia is striking inside Ukraine, you can quite understand why Ukraine feels the need to make sure it's defending itself," said the head of British diplomacy.
In addition, Cameron pledged 3 billion pounds ($3.74 billion) of British annual military aid to Ukraine "for as long as it takes."
He noted that some of the equipment promised by Britain is on its way to Ukraine on the day of his visit to Kyiv, May 2.
At the end of April, Britain announced the allocation of the largest package of military aid to Ukraine, amounting to more than $617 million. In particular, the funds will ensure the supply of ammunition, missiles, and drones.
