UK Trains Ukrainian Soldiers, Pledges £1B in Aid

Boris Johnson’s government has confirmed that hundreds of Ukrainian soliders are being trained in Britain and pledged an additional £1 billion ($1,213,635,000) in militray aid to the country.
“Putin’s brutality continues to take Ukrainian lives and threaten peace and security across Europe,” declared Prime Minister Boris Johnson at a NATO summit in the Spanish capital of Madrid, according to the BBC.
“As 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,” the British premier accused, further insisting that “UK weapons, equipment and training are transforming Ukraine’s defences against this onslaught.”
British forces are training around 450 Ukrainian soldiers to operate Multiple Rocket Launcher System (MLRS) on British soil, with Ukraine’s President  Zelensky having told Western leaders in Madrid that that they need to provide his country with more long-range weapons to “break the Russian artillery advantage”.
Vitaliy Kim, a governor in eastern Ukraine, warned earlier in June that the Russo-Ukrainian conflict is now “a war of artillery… and we are out of ammo.”
