Putin cannot break Ukraine
The British minister drew the Russian dictator's attention to the fact that the allies will support Ukraine "as much as it takes."
Russia's deplorable strikes on Ukraine's energy infrastructure on the eve of Ukraine's third winter of war once again demonstrate Putin's desire to weaken the resolve of a country he thought would be defeated in a matter of days. It won't work. We stand with Ukraine. Today and as long as it takes, David Lammy said in a statement.
It is worth noting that NATO also condemned Russia's mass attack on Ukraine, which took place on November 17.
The bloc emphasized that this air attack was aimed at critical energy infrastructure.
The Alliance supports Ukraine, and the Allies will continue to contribute to strengthening Ukraine's defense capabilities, a NATO spokeswoman said. NATO also took the opportunity to reassure its allies.
