Ukraine’s first lady addresses MPs in UK Parliament

Ukraine’s First Lady Olena Zelenska is about to address MPs in the UK Parliament.

She is in London to attend a meeting on preventing sexual violence in conflicts.

Speaking to the BBC, she said the British people should not forget the “tragedy” of the Russian invasion during the festive season.

Meanwhile, Russia’s Vladimir Putin is using winter as a weapon of war in Ukraine, Nato chief Jens Stoltenberg says.

Moscow is increasing “waves of brutality”, he says, ahead of a meeting of Nato foreign ministers in Bucharest.

UK Foreign Secretary James Cleverly tells reporters Russia is trying to “freeze the Ukrainians into submission”.
