Know we must ask ourselves and all of our allies, what more can we do, what more ammunition can be provided, what extra production can we invest in, what weapons do we have to help the ukrainians in this fight . And we have been discussing this today. And there is the question about what we can do in terms of medium and longer range missiles. I make this point, because it is a sovereign decision for every country, but in terms of what britain has done, i know what we have given to the ukrainians has helped them resist this appalling invasion and fight back against russian aggression. In ukraine itself, Russian Forces are advancing in the east, and many who live there are packing their belongings, and moving away. Ukraine says its forces are holding on, but in the Donetsk Region, several villages have been captured after invading forces took the town of avdiivka, and there are fears more settlements could follow. James waterhouse has been to meet families living just behind the frontlin
Fresh scrutiny to this case, to understand what went wrong to ensure that lessons are learned for the future. And to provide answers to all victims and survivors in this case. I have asked my officials to start immediate preparatory work to set up the inquiry. As part of that work, they will explore different options for who would lead to such an inquiry. After discussing this with the family, we are in agreement that what is most important is that the person who leads the inquiry has the person who leads the inquiry has the confidence of the family, understand their trauma and has the necessary expertise to lead an inquiry of this nature and importance. This includes looking at judiciary within and outwith scotland. To be clear, i have faith and confidence in the independence and confidence in the independence and integrity of the scottish judiciary. However, there is some president in looking beyond scotland for a Chair President in looking beyond Scotland Fora Chairand at president
A member of this alliance. But even once that decision was made, none of this was easy, none of this was obvious. It has taken nearly three years of tireless diplomacy, together with extraordinary Secretary General of nato to achieve ratification by every nato member. Again, the determination of swedens leadership, the extraordinary diplomacy it has exerted, making sure every question was answered, every challenge met, every obstacle overcome, that is what brought us to today. Now, some doubted we would get here, we never did. Here we are. This of course is also built on an extraordinary foundation of partnership between sweden and nato that goes back many years. Sweden has long been an active partner with nato allies, training together, exercising, working together. Fundamentally, the reason this is such a strong powerful fit is because sweden embodies and promotes the core values that are at the heart of nato. Democracy, liberty, the rule of law. And it also brings unique capabilitie
The newspapers which really pioneered what we say about the need for a sustainable ceasefire in the middle east. We help bring together the munich meeting, where european countries, america, together with gulf and arab partners talked about some of the things we must do to not only bring conflict to an end, but bring peace to the middle east. We work closely together on the issue of how we get more aid into gaza, and i completely agree with what Annalena Baerbock said, we must look happy option, options as we have done of delivering aid by air, as we have recently done with the jordanians, but nothing must distract us from the fact that if we ultimately want to avoid famine, disease, and help people in gaza, we need 500 trucks a day. That means more crossing points, simpler logistics, stopping sending back items that would be perfectly harmless. It means making sure there is more of for un staff so they are able to deliver these things. This need is urgent. I made these points to the M
