UK to send 650 missiles to Ukraine as Zelenskyy appeals for more long-range weapons

The UK will send 650 missiles to Ukraine in a £162m commitment to the country's defence against Russia.

Defence secretary John Healey is meeting his European counterparts at a defence summit in Germany alongside President Zelenskyy.

The Ukrainian leader is appealing to more than 50 partner nations for more support by supplying long-range weapons.

If the people who declared war had to fight and lead the army, i think we'd have a better world.

Ukraine need to use washing machine spare parts to manufacture shovels like Russia😂

[nhc]

How many times has this guy been wrong

[RobertJackson]

And the propaganda is still literally flying 😂

[aviluv]

Send Bojo and Cameron, They won't be missed!

Ukraine is making Europe poorer every day

[deantownie]

This is the other side of not declaring war on Russia.

Our Military Budget is $800 billion, UK spends £50 billion, the Total of the NATO Budget in EU is around $380 billion.
Russia spending has increased to $100 billion according to some sources.
This war has been going for more than 2 years, so, my Question is, how on earth can Russia have more weapons than NATO?

[yiotiepapadopoulos]

Is this guy on this planet or he thinks we are all idiots!

[craiggreensmith]

Why should my taxes pay for their weapons?

[derbymallu]

They have so much concern about ukraine's border but zero concern about uk borders . Note the irony.

[Robert-xyxi]

Pensioners can freeze, but cash can always be found for unwinnable proxy wars! 3 billion a year, year on year, has already been pledged to Zelenskiy!

[perfectcaptain]

there is ZERO appetite for continuing this

[aanandika]

Ukraine don't need weapons, Ukraine need peace✌️. Peace is cheapest, most effective weapon that's NATO can't afford

[adamme]

Why not appeals for a peace negotiations? It is clear that Mr Z and the West don not want peace.

9, 000 elderly Brits die every winter of hypothermia in the uK, yet Starmer has scrapped their paltry but much needed fuel allowance, so he can send munitions to Ukraine.

[SMIFFYTV]

And us tax payers are paying for it! Disgusting!

[Mymindseye]

Yeah send more money, we don't need it

[elkanaajowi]

The objectives are being met. Whether they hear or not, the Donbas region is being liberated from over a decade of failed diplomacy with continual atrocities from Ukraine. This is the truth that the leaders in the West do not want to hear.

Fresh Ideas .... here's a fresh idea : why doesn't he and the British defense minister and their immediate families go to Ukraine pick up kalashnikovs and go to the front instead of chatting on sky and the BBC ?
