00:00Well we're here talking to our northern European allies in a military alliance and you're absolutely
00:05right. The focus here is very much on Russian aggression in Ukraine and we have to accept
00:12that there's a war on two fronts. There's the Iranian conflict and the continuing Ukrainian
00:17conflict. Today I'll be talking to allies about what more we can do. Of course there'll be
00:22discussions about defence spend, also defence capability and today I'll be making clear to
00:28them that I'm giving permission for the UK to intercept shadow fleet, Russian shadow
00:33fleet ships. These are ships that are unlawfully breaching sanctions usually with oil and we'll
00:40be working with others on that project. On defence obviously I've already committed to
00:45increasing defence spend. We have commitments to go further and we will keep those commitments.
