A very special occasion this week as my husband Thomas Drew received his knighthood from HRH Princess Royal. Hugely proud that his long commitment to public service has been recognised in this way.

We’re taking defence spending to 2.5% of GDP.

The biggest strengthening of our national defence for a generation.

Ensuring Ukraine wins is the most important thing we can do for global peace and security.

That’s why we’re increasing our support - backing Ukraine with £500 million for military aid and delivering our largest-ever package of equipment.

An effective Palestinian government for the West Bank and Gaza is a vital element for lasting peace.

I met Palestinian Authority PM Mohammad Mustafa to reiterate UK support as his government takes much needed steps on reform, and our shared commitment to a two-state solution.

I visited Israel to show solidarity following Iran’s appalling attack.

Any response must do as little to escalate this conflict as possible.

As I said to PM Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו and @Israel_Katz today, we must maintain our focus on getting more aid into Gaza and getting hostages out.

Alexei Navalny dedicated his life to exposing the corruption of Putin’s system and speaking up for the Russian people – Yulia Navalnaya is continuing his fight.

I was honoured to meet her today.

This is the struggle of our generation.

Ukraine can win this war and achieve a just peace. But we must all, Americans and Europeans alike, do more.

The outcome is down to us.

Moscow is outspending Ukraine and its allies.

Foreign Secretary David Cameron was in Washington this week to make it clear: Ukraine can win, but we must increase our support to defeat Putin’s war machine.

Losing this war will cost much, much more than backing Ukraine.

A Royal Navy ship will help get life-saving UK aid into Gaza as part of an international effort to set up a humanitarian maritime corridor in early May.

We are also pledging £9.7 million for aid, equipment and expertise to help set up the maritime corridor from Cyprus to Gaza.
