Can Australia help Ukraine win the war?
The Australian Defence Force is set to deploy troops to the United Kingdom in an effort to train Ukrainian soldiers
The Australian Defence Force is set to deploy troops to the United Kingdom in an effort to train Ukrainian soldiers and help them defend their nation against Putin’s invasion.
Dubbed Operation ‘Inteflex’, the 70 personnel will not enter Ukraine but will join the British-led training effort just after Christmas.
The deployment is part of a whole-of-government effort to support Ukraine in the face of ongoing Russian aggression.
“Australia has been unequivocal in its bipartisan support for Ukraine and its condemnation of President Putin.
We will continue to stand up for freedom and democracy.
This is a not just about Ukraine’s sovereignty; the brave people of Ukraine are defending international law, rules and norms.”
Anthony Albanese, Australian Prime Minister
Australia has condemned Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea, with this latest commitment building on the country’s existing support for Ukraine.
Additionally, the government will send a further 30 Bushmaster vehicles to Ukraine later this year.
Australia’s federal budget set aside more than $200 million in aid for the war-torn nation.
The nation’s total financial support for Ukraine now tops $655 million.
