Russia-Ukraine war live: Cameron calls for more defence spending as Nato ministers meet

Nato foreign ministers will meet in Brussels today. David Cameron, the British foreign secretary, is set to urge his colleagues to spend more, produce more and deliver more on defence.

In a speech, Cameron is expected to encourage Nato allies to step up support for Kyiv and ramp up defence industrial production.

“75 years after its creation, we are celebrating a Nato that has never been stronger or more important, especially following Sweden’s accession last month,” Cameron said.

“With Ukraine closer to Nato than ever, we must sustain the critical support Ukraine needs to win the war,” the foreign secretary stressed, adding that “Allies need to step up and spend more on defence in the face of continued Russian aggression and a more dangerous world.”
