The UK Defence Minister, Luke Pollard, announced on Ukrainian Independence Day that the United Kingdom is sharing technology with Ukraine to enable the domestic production of Storm Shadow missiles. Speaking from Devonport, Pollard stated, 'We will stand with them for as long as it takes.' This marks a significant escalation in military support, moving from supplying weapons to enabling Ukraine to manufacture advanced long-range strike capabilities on its own soil, thereby enhancing its self-defense and strategic autonomy.
