Tonight I met Quint Foreign Ministers @SecBlinken @JY_LeDrian @ABaerbock @luigidimaio
Putin has changed his tactics, not his intent. We agreed to double down efforts to support Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression.
🇬🇧🇺🇸🇫🇷🇩🇪🇮🇹
452
Our new sanctions will debilitate the Russian economy further:
👉End all Russian energy imports
👉Assets frozen of Russia’s largest bank, Sberbank
👉Total ban on new outward investment to Russia twitter.com/trussliz/statu…
453
We're going further to cripple Putin’s war machine.
Today I have announced our toughest sanctions yet - targeting Russia's energy industry, as well as hitting more banks, businesses and oligarchs who are financing Russia's abhorrent crimes in Ukraine. 👇

The United Kingdom, together with our allies, are doing everything we can to support the Ukrainian people in their hour of need.
456
Now more than ever the UK needs to deepen its security and defence relations with its closest allies.
We are moving #AUKUS forward with a new commitment to expand cooperation in areas including hypersonics and electronic warfare. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸

Important speech from @ZelenskyyUa on need to reform global security architecture. Putin needs to lose in Ukraine and Russian aggression has to be stopped for good.
UK is using our presidency of the Council to hold Russia to account. 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 twitter.com/UKUN_NewYork/s…
458
The UK and Poland are united in supporting Ukraine and coordinating sanctions to cripple Putin's war machine.
Good discussion with Foreign Minister @RauZbigniew. We will continue to work together to make sure Putin fails in Ukraine and to punish him for his actions. 🇬🇧🇵🇱
459
Met Polish PM @MorawieckiM in Warsaw to discuss UK-Poland cooperation and the situation in Ukraine.
We share a strong security and defence relationship, and are determined to step up our efforts to make sure Putin fails. 🇬🇧 🇵🇱 🇺🇦
460
Appalling reports of rape and sexual violence being perpetrated in Ukraine.
Earlier with @DmytroKuleba the UK announced £10m to 🇺🇦 organisations inc those helping women and girls affected by sexual violence in conflict.
The use of rape as a weapon of war is a war crime.
461
Welcomed Ukraine’s Foreign Minister @DmytroKuleba to British Embassy in Warsaw.
We need to be tougher on Russia to ensure Putin loses in Ukraine which means more weapons and more sanctions.
We will not waver. 🇬🇧🇺🇦
462
The UK, Poland and our allies are stepping up the pressure on Russia over its illegal invasion of Ukraine.
I’m in Warsaw to talk to the Polish government, our steadfast partners in supporting Ukraine. 🇬🇧🇵🇱🇺🇦
463
Given strong evidence of war crimes, including reports of mass graves and heinous butchery in Bucha, Russia cannot remain a member of the UN Human Rights Council.
Russia must be suspended.
464
Reports of shallow graves outside Kyiv are truly horrifying.
We are working with allies and the ICC to ensure the perpetrators are held to account.
We will not rest until Russia has paid the price for these appalling crimes.
465
Russia is still blocking life-saving humanitarian support from reaching Mariupol, despite repeated promises not to.
It must allow aid agencies access to reach those in vital need of support, whoever and wherever they are.
466
Spoke with @melaniejoly on the need for even tougher sanctions on Russia.
Energy dependence on Russia must end to cut off funding to Putin's war machine.
Together we #StandWithUkraine
467
We must hold to account those responsible for the appalling acts committed by Russian troops in Bucha, Irpin and elsewhere in Ukraine.
Putin’s regime will not be allowed to cover up their involvement in these atrocities.

468
Britain has stepped up with our allies and partners to support our brave Ukrainian friends in their fight.
Together, we cannot rest until Ukraine prevails and Putin fails.

Appalled by atrocities in Bucha and other towns in Ukraine. Reports of Russian forces targeting innocent civilians are abhorrent.
The UK is working with others to collect evidence and support @IntlCrimCourt war crimes investigation. Those responsible will be held to account.
470
Terrible news about the devastating fire in Hargeisa, Somaliland - it has now been brought under control.
The UK is working with the authorities and international partners to seek to provide support. My thoughts are with all those affected.
471
Today marks the 40th anniversary of the illegal invasion of the Falkland Islands. We remember with sadness the more than 900 lives lost in the Falklands War.
The Falklands are part of the British family and we will always defend their right to self determination 🇬🇧 🇫🇰
472
Spoke with @SecBlinken today about the situation in Ukraine.
We agreed that pressure on Russia must continue and we will work to eliminate dependency on Russian energy.
With our allies we will continue to support Ukraine 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🇺🇦
