UK Foreign Secretary Lord Cameron affirmed Ukraine's right to defend itself, stating it can decide to use British weapons inside Russia if deemed necessary. The declaration, made during a visit to Kyiv, follows the UK's commitment to provide £3bn annually in military aid to Ukraine. Russia criticized the statement, calling it an escalation of tension. While not explicitly endorsing strikes on Russian territory, Cameron emphasized Ukraine's autonomy in weapon use. The UK's stance aligns with its ongoing support for Ukraine against Russian aggression since 2022.
