SKY News: UK not an Amazon delivery service for weapons to Ukraine, says defence secretary Ben Wallace
The minister said "whether we like it or not people want to see gratitude" for weapons sent to Ukraine, adding that Kyiv needs to "persuade doubting politicians in other countries that you know that it's worth it".
The UK is not an "Amazon" delivery service for weapons to Ukraine and Kyiv might be wise to let its supporters "see gratitude", Britain's defence secretary has said.
In a blunt intervention, Ben Wallace said his "counsel" to the Ukrainians was to keep in mind that they need to persuade some doubting politicians in Washington and other capitals that the tens of billions of pounds they are spending on military aid to their country for its war with Russia is worthwhile.

Little tyrant zelensky will be killed before he tells the world the deals he made with the west to fight on their behalf. That loser is not a legit leader of Ukraine and had only served to destroy the country beyond the ability to repair.
Wow, you described putin
If the west didn't drag their feet and supply the weapons from day one , then the Russian defensive lines wouldn't have been built and the war would be negotiated by kyiev from a position of strength
Or nuclear weapons would have been used. It’s a terrible thing for all of us that people who think like you do are in positions of power and influence in the west. We will not last.
The British defense minister is a dick.
You do not send reinforcements in dribs and drabs, penny ante or otherwise. To do so is stupid. It increases chances of failure. It is wasteful of lives. It is immoral.
9:49 defeatists, scaremmongering troll.
