Vladimir Putin must not go “unpunished” for the “diabolical atrocities” witnessed in Ukraine, the UK has said as Western allies meet in Germany for talks on supplying Kyiv with more military aid.
James Cleverly, the foreign secretary, accused the Kremlin of an “outrageous violation” of the rules-based international order as he confirmed the UK would “play a leading role in a core group of likeminded partners to pursue criminal accountability for Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine”.
His comments came as NATO and defence leaders from roughly 50 countries met on Friday at Ramstein Airbase, Germany, in the latest in a series of arms-pledging conferences since Russia invaded Ukraine nearly 11 months ago.
The main focus of the talks is on whether Germany will allow the re-export to Ukraine of its Leopard 2 tanks, which are used by armies across Europe. Earlier the Kremlin insisted that Western countries supplying additional tanks to Ukraine would not change the course of the conflict.
