Great Britain will continue to support Ukraine concerning the armed conflict in Donbass. This was reported by the ambassador of Great Britain in Ukraine Judith Gough during her trip to Mariupol.
“Of course, Great Britain supports the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine. We stand hand in hand with your country,” said Gough.
