The award was completely unexpected and very meaningful. It really means a huge amount.

I am so proud of what Britain has contributed. That work will continue, and our cast-iron support for Ukraine will always endure.

Throughout this conflict, I have seen the incredible fortitude of the Ukrainian people and the iron will of a nation that refuses to be cowed.

I vowed the UK would stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes - and long after.
