In an interview with Sky News, he noted, “We need a strategic decision now, and I think we should create a coalition of those who want to join the conflict and support Ukraine in order to oust Russia.”

Mr. Howarth urged the West to consider the option of sending its soldiers to Ukraine. According to him, Western states should not supply Kiev with fighter jets, since their capture by the Russian side may pose a danger to the West.
