Grant Shapps has warned of “fatal” consequences if western countries give up on Ukraine.
“The rest of the world – other regimes – will be looking at this and saying, ‘does the West just get bored after a couple of years?'” the defence secretary said, speaking to BBC Breakfast on the second anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion.
“If we do, that will be fatal… it matters to use because the world won’t be safe unless we stop a tyrant like [Vladimir] Putin.”
