Sir Ben Wallace expressed his disappointment regarding the ongoing discussions between the US and UK over Ukraine's military capabilities, stating that delays only benefit Russia. He noted that this back-and-forth nature of decision-making has been a recurring issue since the conflict began, affecting the provision of support such as anti-tank and anti-air missiles. Wallace emphasized that each delay allows President Putin to consolidate his position, ultimately undermining the efforts of the US and UK to support Ukraine.
During a discussion, Sir Keir Starmer described the recent talks with President Biden as long and productive, implying that the UK and US have established a strong partnership in addressing the Ukraine crisis. However, he refrained from disclosing the outcomes regarding Ukraine's use of Storm Shadow missiles, signaling a cautious approach in communication over military capabilities. The overall sentiment from Starmer indicated that cooperation continues despite the challenges posed by the ongoing conflict.
