British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has called for Russia to ignore calls for a ceasefire until it withdraws from captured territory in Ukraine, as the occupiers will use it to regroup their forces.

Sky News writes about it.

Rishi Sunak addressed the leaders of the member countries of the Joint Expeditionary Force in Latvia and said that the alliance should provide more military assistance to Ukraine, including additional air defense systems, artillery and armored vehicles.

"We have to be very clear that any unilateral call for a ceasefire by Russia is completely meaningless in the current context. I think it would be a false call, it will be used by Russia

to regroup, to strengthen its forces

. And while they won't leave the conquered territory, there can't and shouldn't be any real negotiations," the British prime minister said.

At the same time, he added, the Alliance must continue to focus its efforts on weakening Russia's ability to regroup and resupply.

This involves "pursuing supply chains and ending international support for the Russian Federation", in particular, strongly criticizing Iran for supplying drones to Moscow, with which the Russian Federation terrorizes Ukrainians.

It will be recalled that the head of the German Foreign Ministry, Annalena Burbok, said that she

does not see any signs that Russia is going to retreat

or that hostilities may stop during the holidays. tomorrow".
