At the G7 summit on Friday, the PM will also call on other world leaders to expedite military assistance to Ukraine as it attempts to push Russian forces away from its borders.
Together with other other gifts, the US, Britain, and Germany have all already pledged to supply modern tanks to Ukraine.
Mr. Sunak will reaffirm his offer to transfer Typhoon planes to any nation that gives Ukraine its collection of Soviet MiG-29 aircraft.
That occurs at a time when the US and NATO assert to have intelligence indicating that China is considering arming the struggling Russian army.On Friday, Mr. Sunak is anticipated to say: “For Ukraine to win this war – and to accelerate that day – they must achieve a clear tactical advantage. That is what it will take for Putin to change his perspective. We need to put this first right now. We need to advance artillery, armor, and air defense more quickly rather than incrementally.
“The coming weeks will be difficult for Ukraine, but they will also be difficult for Russia. They are over-reaching once again. So now is the time to support Ukraine’s plan to re-arm, regroup, and push forward.”
The Prime Minister and his wife Akshata Murty are also expected to hang a blue and yellow wreath on the door of No 10.
“As we mark one year since a full-scale war broke out on our continent, I urge everyone to reflect on the courage and bravery of our Ukrainian friends who, every hour since, have fought heroically for their country”, he is expted to say.
“I am proud that the UK has stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Ukraine through this horrific conflict. As I stand with brave Ukrainian soldiers outside Downing Street today, my thoughts will be with all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to defend freedom and return peace to Europe.”
