We’ve built up strong protections against this virus over the past two years through the vaccine rollouts, tests, new treatments, and the best scientific understanding of what this virus can do. 2/3

Covid will not suddenly disappear, and we need to learn to live with this virus and continue to protect ourselves without restricting our freedoms. 1/3

The unity shown today at @MunSecConf means that we have a chance, even at this 11th hour, of averting disaster and ensuring that good sense can still prevail.
605
Great to meet @OlafScholz today and discuss how we deepen UK-German #Freundship.
Our nations are allies, @NATO partners with shared democratic values.
We are united in defending European security in the face of Russian aggression.
606
Britain will always stand up for freedom and democracy around the world, and when we say that our commitment to European security is immovable and unconditional, our deeds show that we mean our words.

Ukraine asks for nothing except to be allowed to live in peace and to make its own decisions as every sovereign country has a right to do.
Their security is our security, and we are committed to ensuring it is not compromised.

The message I am taking to @MunSecConf today is that allies must speak with one voice to stress to President Putin the high price he will pay for any further Russian invasion of Ukraine.
We need western solidarity to avoid unnecessary bloodshed.
Diplomacy can still prevail.
609
The @metoffice has issued a Red Weather Warning for much of the UK.
We should all follow the advice and take precautions to keep safe.
I thank responders for all their efforts. twitter.com/metoffice/stat…

The picture in Ukraine continues to be very grim.
This weekend I will travel to the @MunSecConf for discussions with partners.
The West is united: De-escalation and dialogue is the only way forward.
611
The UK and Australia are the closest of friends and historic allies.
Tonight Prime Minister @ScottMorrisonMP and I agreed to strengthen the partnership between our nations, making it fit for the next century and grounded in our shared priorities on security, democracy and trade.
612
I spoke with Prime Minister @kishida230 this morning and we both agreed that the international community needed to stand united against an invasion of an independent country – which would carry severe consequences.
Both the UK and Japan will not tolerate Russia’s aggression.
613
I thank President @vonderleyen for her close cooperation on sanctions so far.
We will continue working with our allies to prepare a package of economic measures that would punish Russia if Ukraine's sovereignty is breached.
614
There are signs of a diplomatic opening with Russia, but the intelligence we are seeing today is not encouraging.
We have a tough package of sanctions ready if Russia chooses war.
We maintain that diplomacy and de-escalation is the only way forward.
615
Our economic recovery continues with the strongest growth in the G7, low unemployment, redundancies at a record low and the number of payrolled employees at a record high.
Our #PlanForJobs is creating opportunities so anyone ready to work can get a job faster than ever before.
616
President Biden and I agreed this evening there is a crucial window for diplomacy & for Russia to step back from its threats towards Ukraine.
We are united in the face of such threats.
Further incursion into Ukraine will result in far reaching damage for Russia and the world.
617
Fantastic to see the growth of the @RoyalNavy fleet with the new Type 31 frigate.
In Rosyth, our plan to level up across the UK is coming together.
We’re creating jobs and protecting our security interests around the world.
618
We are on an edge of a precipice but there is still time for President Putin to step back. We're urging everybody to engage in dialogue and for the Russian government to avoid what would be a disastrous mistake for Russia.
619
The defence of the realm is the first duty of government – that’s why we’re strengthening our Armed Forces, ensuring we can protect UK interests and be a force for good in the world. twitter.com/10DowningStree…
620
Levelling up means having access to good healthcare, good education, skilled work and reliable transport no matter where you live.
We’re getting on with the job, delivering on our mission to unite and level up the whole United Kingdom.

When @NATO was founded, allies made a historic undertaking to safeguard the freedom of every member state.
The UK remains unwavering in our commitment to European security.
622
We’re relaxing COVID-19 travel rules – good news for families, businesses and the travel sector, making journeys easier and cheaper.
It’s thanks to the millions who got vaccinated and boosted that we now have one of the most open borders and societies in Europe. twitter.com/10DowningStree…
623
Today's GDP figures confirm the UK was the fastest growing economy in the G7 in 2021.
Thanks to the incredible resolve of the British people and our great British vaccination effort the economy is bouncing back strongly🇬🇧
624
Dame Cressida has served her country with great dedication and distinction over many decades. I thank her for her role protecting the public and making our streets safer.
625
NATO is a defensive alliance that is fundamental to global security.
Today I have agreed a package of support with Secretary-General @jensstoltenberg to further strengthen our collective security, sending troops, planes and ships to defend NATO from North to South.
