UK calls for continued support for Ukraine at UN Security Council
16 January 2025
The UK has called on the international community to continue its support for Ukraine as the war continues between Russia and Ukraine.
Speaking at the UN Security Council, UK Ambassador to the UN Barbara Woodward said that the UK “must not let Ukraine’s courage and bravery be in vain.”
“The people of Ukraine have shown extraordinary resilience and determination in the face of Russia’s aggression,” she said. “We must not let them down.”
Woodward called on the international community to continue to provide military, financial, and humanitarian support to Ukraine. She also called for continued diplomatic efforts to find a peaceful solution to the conflict.
“We must not allow Russia to succeed in its illegal and immoral attempt to seize Ukrainian territory,” she said. “We must stand with Ukraine until it prevails.”
The UK’s statement comes as the war in Ukraine continues to exact a heavy toll on both sides. According to the UN, more than 10 million people have been displaced from their homes, and more than 40,000 civilians have been killed.
The UK has been one of the strongest supporters of Ukraine since the start of the war. The UK has provided Ukraine with military equipment, financial aid, and humanitarian assistance. The UK has also imposed sanctions on Russia and has been working to isolate Russia from the international community.
The UK’s call for continued support for Ukraine is likely to be echoed by other members of the UN Security Council. The US, France, and Germany have all expressed their support for Ukraine and have called for Russia to end its aggression.
However, it is unclear whether Russia will be willing to end the war. Russia has repeatedly said that it will not withdraw from Ukraine until it achieves its goals.
The war in Ukraine is a major challenge for the international community. The UK is right to call for continued support for Ukraine. The international community must stand with Ukraine and help it to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
