Ms Truss said that with the UK’s allies, we are showing the Russian elite that they “cannot wash their hands of the atrocities committed on Putin’s orders.”

Following a fresh load of sanctions, including a full asset freeze against Russia’s largest bank, Ms Truss said: “Our latest wave of measures will bring an end to the UK’s imports of Russian energy and sanction yet more individuals and businesses, decimating Putin’s war machine.”

The UK will be joined by other NATO members from Ukraine, Finland, Sweden, Georgia, and the European Union, as well non-NATO members Australia, Japan, New Zealand and the Republic of Korea, for the second day of a summit in Brussels to address Putin’s “brutal and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine”.

Speaking ahead of the meeting, Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba said there are three items on his agenda: “Weapons, weapons and weapons”.

On the sidelines of the NATO meeting, G7 foreign ministers will meet, Ms Truss will be attending the meeting alongside her US counterpart Antony Blinken and others.
