Ukraine can draw on the best of British military expertise and defense production to ensure victory on the battlefield, including in important areas such as long-range missiles, air defense, and artillery ammunition
He emphasized that the key is that any future Russian invasion would violate the UN Charter and fundamental principles of international law, and would seriously undermine Euro-Atlantic security, including that of the United Kingdom.
Therefore, in the event of an armed attack on Ukraine, at the request of any of the Participants, consultations will be held within 24 hours to determine the measures necessary to counter or deter aggression

In addition, Yermak said that the United Kingdom pledges that in such circumstances, acting in accordance with its legal and constitutional requirements, it will provide Ukraine with rapid and sustained security assistance, modern military equipment in all necessary areas, and economic assistance. Sanctions will be imposed on the Russian Federation, economic and other encumbrances will be imposed.
I would add that security guarantees are a transitional stage to joining NATO. The Alliance is a key goal for Ukraine. The guarantees have been launched, after which the same agreements will be signed with our other allies
