“My message to the people of Ukraine is this: the UK will continue to be right behind you every step of the way. Your security is our security,” Truss told reporters on Monday ahead of her visit to New York City (NYC) to take part in an annual United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) session, Sputnik reported.
In her upcoming UNGA speech, the British PM is expected to pledge “military aid worth billions [of pounds]”, according to the BBC.
Sky News, in turn, reported that Truss may use her trip to NYC “to underscore the UK's long-term commitment to Ukraine” as Russia continues its special military operation in the country.
The UK remains Ukraine’s second largest military donor after the US, committing £2.3 billion ($2.6 billion) and providing Kiev with hundreds of rockets, air defense systems, and non-lethal military equipment.
