“Ukraine can win and it will win. But they need our backing to do so. Now is not the time to give up on Ukraine.”

He warned Ukrainians should not be encouraged to “settle for a bad peace” where they were “invited to give up chunks of their territory in return for a ceasefire” in the war against Russia.
