Sunak gives wholehearted support to Ukraine and Polandpublished at 08:32 Greenwich Mean Time 16 November 2022
UK PM Sunak says yesterday at the G20 summit fellow leaders "confronted" the Russian foreign minister with the "illegality of his country's war" in Ukraine.
"Barely two hours later," he says that more than 80 missiles rained down on western Ukraine, "killing civilians and destroying infrastructure".
He says while other leaders were working together, "Putin was launching indiscriminate attacks on Ukraine."
He says an urgent meeting of allies has taken place to "underscore solidarity" with Ukraine and Poland, and said he has offered his "wholehearted support" to Poland.
"None of this would be happening if it weren't for Russia's invasion of Ukraine. This is the cruel and unrelenting reality of this war," he says.
