Mr Lammy added: “As we mark three years since Putin launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine, we also mark three years of Britain standing united with Ukraine, supporting them through military and humanitarian aid, welcoming Ukrainian refugees to our communities and standing firm against Putin’s aggression, his imperialist aims, and his threat to our continent’s security.
Mr Lammy said this is a “critical moment” for Ukraine, the UK and Europe as a whole, and marks not just three years of fighting but also three years of Britain “standing united” with Ukraine.
Mr Lammy said the UK would continue to work with US and European partners to achieve “sustainable, just peace”, but stressed that Ukraine must be involved.
The Foreign Secretary said: “On the battlefield we remain committed to providing £3 billion of military support a year to put Ukraine in the strongest position possible, and being ready and willing to provide UK troops as part of peacekeeping forces if necessary.
The UK will unveil new sanctions to “turn the screws” on Russia as it marks three years since Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
