Ukraine's deputy prime minister said that while she welcomed the UK's recent decision to send tanks to the country, she was hoping for more help from other nations, including Germany.
Talk to enough of the delegates gathered here in the Swiss town of Davos and the impression you pick up is a palpable sense of relief.They're relieved that the global economy seems to have shaken off much of the impact ofdelegation, this is precisely the wrong lesson to take.
They point out that there has rarely been another moment when they have been more in need of the West's help. She said:"We are grateful for our partners and for the UK, who are among the countries that will provide us with heavy weapons - tanks, everything that we need to obtain the victory during this year."Asked about Germany, which has prevaricated over sending tanks to Ukraine, she added:"I hope that they will make the right decision, and provide us with tanks. We hope that they will follow your example.
However, according to one influential Putin critic, Bill Browder, the forum has conspired to make it tougher for campaigners like him to get their voices heard.He had hoped to spend much of the week making the case that billions of pounds of frozen Russian money, held in central banks including the Bank of England, should be released and given to Ukraine to aid its defence and reconstruction.
