UK Foreign Minister David Cameron promised an annual £3 billion (CAD$6.5 billion) of military aid for Ukraine in a new multi-year pledge on Thursday as the European country continues to fight its neighbour, Russia.

Speaking with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Cameron said the support will come for “as long as it takes” in order to “show” Russian President Vladimir Putin they won’t stop, adding his hopes that the UK’s financial backing will set an example for other allies of Ukraine.

Cameron also said Ukrainians should be able to use British weapons in whatever way they please as they were “illegally invaded by Putin” and are “defending their country.”

“Russia has launched an attack into Ukraine and Ukraine absolutely has the right to strike back at Russia,” he told a reporter, adding that Ukraine has “the right” to use these weapons inside Russia.

During an interview on Friday, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov called Cameron’s statement “a direct escalation of tension” around the two-year spanning conflict.
