Ukraine: Boris Johnson Says UK Will Send Lethal Weapons by SeeThisLoser(op): 1:57pm On Feb 23, 2022

Boris Johnson has revealed Britain will send lethal weapons to Ukraine as tensions escalate with Russia in today's Prime Minister's Questions.

Speaking in the House of Commons, he said: “I can announce to the House that in light of the increasingly threatening behaviour from Russia and in line with our previous support, the UK will shortly be providing a further package of military support to Ukraine.

“This will include lethal aid in the form of defensive weapons and non-lethal aid.”

Much of today's PMQs was filled with questions about sanctions the government will impose on Russia and whether it will challenge Ofcom to remove Russia Today broadcasts, described by Keir Starmer as Putin "propaganda".

It comes as British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss defended the UK's "very serious package" of sanctions against Russia, saying the Government will ramp up punitive measures in the event of a "full-scale invasion" by Moscow.

A Ukrainian soldier has died and six others have been injured after heavy shelling by pro-Russia separatists in the self-declared People's Republics of Donetsk and Luhansk.

Ceasefire violations remain at a high level with separatist forces using heavy artillery, mortars and Grad rocket systems, Kyiv claims.

Putin says the Minsk Agreements set up to avoid war in the Donbas region of Ukraine "no longer exist".

Ukraine is set to declare a state of emergency across the whole country, barring the so-called independent regions, initially lasting 30 days.

It has urged citizens living in Russia, estimated to be up to three million people, to leave immediately.

Kyiv has called up a first wave of reservists, aged 18 to 60, to join the regular armed forces.

Let's see how it goes for Russia..
Very violent and sick dictator who's bent on destroying the world..

Was this not how Adolf started his nonsense.. something similar.. cry

Modified:who are the buzzos saying Russia is fighting for a reason..what nonsense old territory is he fighting to get back..

Putin is an abject failure as “president” of Russia. In reality he’s a dictator who frankly has utterly failed to deliver. Russia’s economy sucks, their government is ruled by a criminal junta under Putin’s command, and Putin owes much to the petrochemical oligarchs who, in reality, control the economy.

Russia has continued to slip more and more under Putin every year. Putin NEEDS a win. His control demands respect, and he’s getting less of that every year in Russia. Putin thinks if he can rebrand himself as some sort of “Russia builder” that he can improve his image. That’s about it. Russia doesn’t NEED Ukraine, it’s all about his image...
He's just being scared of NATO..he does not want a future NATO country on his border..very weird guy..
To all his babyish nairaland supporters..will you prefer to be ruled by Putin or Biden..or do you prefer Russia to USA if you get the chance? undecided

I see Buhari sending Nigerian soldiers to the war to help Britain as part of our agreement as members of the Commonwealth.

I see the soldiers abandoning their military gear and disappearing from the airport immediately their plane touches the British airport

I see lie Mohammed saying that the soldiers are already in Russia combating Putin's forces, I see some of the soldiers resurface after some months with British grannies as their wives.

This I have seen.

You see why some people have always been cautious about this Russia-Ukraine stuff? It may lead to a world war if not handled well.

Russia is still angry with the breakup of the former Soviet Union, which diluted its authority and power.

They are bent on destabilising all the breakaway countries by fuelling separatist moves and pro-Russian rebels. This Ukraine crisis is similar to what they did to Georgia in 2008.

I don't even understand how these so called leaders reason. The billions that are about to be spent on this fruitless war venture could be used to fight hunger and poverty.
Why exactly can't this problem be resolved in a round table?
Must everything be about war and force?

Hmmm. I still think diplomacy is the best way around this. UK, US and NATO should make an agreement to not accept Ukraine into NATO, and should also make Russia sign an agreement to not invade or intimidate Ukraine going forward. I very much understand Putin's thinking. No matter how much freedom and liberty we think Ukraine deserves, it would be foolish of Putin to trust the west and allow NATO admit Ukraine and now use them as a base to attack him in the future. No sane leader would allow that. Not one who has seen several wars and certainly not a man of Putin's calibre.

Something is pushing Putin to embark on this needless war.
Maybe he has an innovative nuclear weapon he's dying to unleash.
All I know he is Putin is the antagonist and he may do damage, but he can't win
