Boris Johnson has demanded more weapons be sent to Ukraine, saying there is no point having “Challenger tanks deployed in Wiltshire”, when the “Ukrainians could be using them now”.
The former Prime Minister flew to the United States to meet with a group of Republican senators
In a statement ahead of the visit, he said: “I am here primarily to recognize and pay tribute to the immense U.S. contribution to the security of the Ukrainian people.
“My mission is to demonstrate that Ukraine will win – and that there is no conceivable case for delay in further supporting the Ukrainians to win this year. We should have no fear of escalation when it comes to the provision of weaponry.”
