Ukraine: Military Aid (10 October 2022)

Question Asked

Asked by:
Mark Pritchard (Conservative)

Answer

We continue to tailor the training we are providing to the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) to meet their needs. Following a recent reassessment of critical AFU training requirements, UK-based training for Ukrainian soldiers has been expanded and increased in duration. To date, mental health programmes have not been formally or specifically requested by the AFU within their requirement for rehabilitation or military training.
