Sunak, Hunt and Shapps arrive in Warsaw hours after Rwanda bill passes
Rishi Sunak, Jeremy Hunt, and Grant Shapps arrived in Warsaw on Tuesday (23 April) just hours after the government’s controversial Rwanda Bill was passed.
The prime minister is expected to unveil an extra £500 million of military funding to Ukraine and announce the largests supply of munitions as he reinforces his ties with key European allies.
The largest package of munitions is expected to include a mix of 1,600 strike and air defence missiles; an unspecified number of Storm Shadow cruise missiles, one of the most powerful weapons; and 400 all-terrain and armoured vehicles.
Mr Sunak will meet his Polish counterpart Donald Tusk, as well as Jens Stoltenberg, the secretary-general of Nato, to discuss European security and support to Ukraine.
