Ukrainian MP on how Britain can help country win Russia war: ‘Let’s make Putin pay’

Ukrainian MP Kira Rudik has asked her country’s allies to switch from “helping Ukraine fight, to letting us win the war.”

She said limitations on issues such as weapons delivery need to be lifted so Ukraine does not have to face Russia "empty-handed".

She said: "Let's make Putin pay for what he broke."
