The Ukrainian leader visited the UK on Wednesday and made a plea for fighter jets.
This was a cross-party audience poised to applaud at any moment a leader who has become the face and voice of his country, and recognised in much of the world.But can the UK, should the UK, provide what he wants?It was a leader at war with a specific request.
Presenting a fighter pilot's helmet to the Speaker of the Commons, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, he pointed to the writing upon it: "We have freedom, give us wings to protect it."And not only is President Zelensky asking for it, so is Boris Johnson,So what should we read into the current prime minister's promise later that "nothing is off the table"?The UK feels it has a strategic, diplomatic and moral obligation to remain steadfast in its support for Ukraine.
For all these reasons Lord Robertson, the former secretary general of Nato, told the BBC there were "huge problems" with the idea, at least in the short term.
