Momentum on Ukraine has dropped back" since Labour took office, according to the ex-Tory defence minister and former army officer Sir Ben Wallace.

Responding to recent comments by Kyiv officials that Ukraine's relationship with the UK has got worse" since Keir Starmer was elected prime minister, Wallace said that was because the leadership that Britain showed right from the start has started to drop back into the pack".
