hundreds of Ukrainian soliders are being trained in Britain and pledged an additional \u00a31 billion ($1,213,635,000) in militray aid to the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPutin\u2019s brutality continues to take Ukrainian lives and threaten peace and security across Europe,\u201d declared Prime Minister Boris Johnson at a NATO summit in the Spanish capital of Madrid, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/uk-61990479\">according<\/a> to the BBC.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cAs Putin fails to make the gains he had anticipated and hoped for and the futility of this war becomes clear to all, his attacks against the Ukrainian people are increasingly barbaric,\u201d the British premier accused, further insisting that\u00a0\u201cUK weapons, equipment and training are transforming Ukraine\u2019s defences against this onslaught.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>British forces are training around 450 Ukrainian soldiers to <a

with Ukraine\u2019s President\u00a0 Zelensky having told Western leaders in Madrid that that they need to provide his country with more long-range weapons to \u201cbreak the Russian artillery advantage\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Vitaliy Kim, a governor in eastern Ukraine, warned earlier in June that the Russo-Ukrainian conflict is now \u201ca war of artillery\u2026 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/europe\/2022\/06\/11\/ukraine-governor-this-is-war-artillery-and-we-are-out-of-ammo\/\">we are out of ammo<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\"

still receives billions every day [in energy payments] and spends them on war,\u201d noting that his own country has \u201ca multibillion-dollar deficit, we don\u2019t have oil and gas to cover it\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Johnson administration has therefore pledged that, alongide the MLRS training and a donation of newly-purchased howitzers, the British government will be granting the Ukrainian governmnet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/uk-61990479\">a further \u00a31 billion in aid<\/a> \u2014 despite a worsening cost of living crisis and budget deficit at home \u2014 making it the second-highest international contributor to Kyiv\u2019s coffers behind the Joe Biden administration in the considerably wealthier United States.<\/p>\n<p>At a G7 summit just days ago, Prime Minister Johnson appeared to discourage Ukraine from striking a peace deal with Russia, warning that \u201csometimes the price of freedom is worth paying\u201d \u2014 although he has not actually committed British forces to the conflict.<\/p>\n<p>He also made the ahistorical observation that \u201cit took the democracies in the middle of the last century a long time to recognise that they had to resist tyranny and aggression\u201d and that while \u201c[i]t took them a long time [to do so] what it bought in the end, with the defeat of the dictators, particularly of Nazi Germany, [was] decades and decades of stability [and] a world order that relied on a rules-based international system.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In fact, dictators in the Stalin-led Soviet Union and what would become the People\u2019s Republic of China were strengthened by the war, and much of the latter half of the 20th-century was marred by destabilising proxy conflicts and the threat of nuclear war.<\/p>\n<blockquote
