Volodymr Zelensky has accused Britain of 'slowing down' support for Ukraine as he demanded the removal of 'barriers' in his country's fight against Russia. A Government spokesperson said PM Sir Keir Starmer maintains 'unwavering' support for Ukraine.
An ex-tory defence secretary yesterday joined calls for Ukraine to be allowed to unleash Western-supplied rockets inside Russia .
Mr Wallace, who stepped down last year, was behind the UK initially providing Ukraine with Storm Shadow missiles – which have a range of over 155 miles and are highly accurate. By contrast, the US-supplied Himars missiles have a range of around 50 miles. Frustrations over the failure to employ the long-range rockets came as Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky suffered another blow yesterday.
Meanwhile, Ukraine has continued its successful moves into southern Russia, destroying bridges required by the Kremlin to transport troops and equipment.
