British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak claimed on Monday that his country has "led the world" in supporting Ukraine during the ongoing war with Russia, and "that is something we have led the world in and we will continue to do so."
"When it comes to the armed forces and defense, something that we should all be really proud of is what our country has done to support Ukraine and stand up to Russian aggression," Sunak said.
The United Kingdom has continually shown support for Kiev with the head of the defense select committee, Tobias Ellwood, asserting on Monday that the UK must face Russia 'directly'. Earlier in the month, Sunak announced plans to send Challenger 2 tanks and additional artillery systems to Ukraine.
