Rishi Sunak calls on US to continue with ‘bolder’ military support for Ukraine
==========
Rishi Sunak, the Prime Minister of the UK, has called on the United States to continue providing 'bolder' military support for Ukraine. He also urged Ukraine's allies to use money obtained through Russian sanctions and assets to fund Ukraine's defense. The UK has pledged £245 million for producing artillery shells for Ukraine and £8.5 million in humanitarian funding. US President Joe Biden has faced challenges in securing approval for further military aid due to partisan battles over immigration. Rishi Sunak emphasized the need for more long-range weapons, drones, and munitions for Ukraine, as well as hitting the Russian war economy with stronger sanctions. He also suggested redistributing money taken from Russia or its citizens back to Ukraine's war efforts. Rishi Sunak visited Kyiv last month to sign a new security agreement and announce increased military funding for Ukraine. Other EU and G7 allies, including Italian premier Giorgia Meloni and European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen, visited Kyiv to mark the anniversary of the war. The Prime Minister's absence from the visit does not indicate a diminution in UK support for Ukraine, according to Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden.
