UK and Sweden sign security assurance declaration

Boris Johnson and Swedish prime minister Magdalena Andersson have signed an historic security assurance declaration in the face of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The British prime minister is set to sign a similar declaration with Finland later on Wednesday.

The declarations mean the UK will support both countries should they come under attack.
