JAKARTA - British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said his country would do everything to help Ukraine, which is facing a Russian invasion. However, he did not support sending British troops directly to the battlefield.
Liz Truss is known to have made it to the 'top round' of the Conservative Party leader election as well as the British Prime Minister, who will face former finance minister Rishi Sunak, after previously there were 11 names of candidates who were eliminated one by one in a series of voting by members of parliament.
"We are doing everything we can to support Ukraine. We have led the international coalition in arms shipments, we have imposed sanctions," Truss told the BBC, citing TASS July 21.
"But I do not support direct involvement of British troops," said Foreign Minister Truss.
Announcing her plans to run in Daily Telegraph, Truss told the paper she would cut taxes from "day one", if she became prime minister.
Truss told the paper she would "fight the election as a Conservative and rule as a Conservative", adding she would also take "immediate action to help people cope with the cost of living".
"We face huge challenges at home in the midst of the global economic crisis. We face huge challenges abroad, from an aggressive Russia to an increasingly assertive China," she wrote in an article published on the daily's website, Truss said.
Liz Truss will face former UK Treasury Secretary Rishi Sunak in the final round of the race to replace Boris Johnson as prime minister. Now, the nearly 200.000 Conservative party members must decide by early September on the fate of the two candidates. The name of the new Tory leader, who will automatically become prime minister, will be known on September 5.
