“I’m not worried about the strength and unity, consensus and courage of the Ukrainian people. I’m worried that we won’t do what we need to do,” the minister said at the Espen security forum in the US capital.
“We have to make sure that we provide them with weapons, economic support, moral support, diplomatic support, but crucially, military support that can make a difference.”
On Wednesday, the US Senate blocked the White House’s request for $106 billion in emergency aid, which was primarily intended for Ukraine and Israel.

“We have to support them and we have to make that [Krievijas diktators Vladimirs] Putin is the one who loses, because if there is no vote to give this money, there will be only two people smiling.”
One is Putin, but “the other is [Ķīnas prezidents] Xi Jinping in Beijing,” Cameron said.
“And I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to give any of these people a Christmas present.”
