He will also vow to use it to defend a better future against enemies, in a speech calling 2023 \u201cone of the most significant years\u201d for UK foreign policy in recent times.<\/p>\n
Addressing diplomats, foreign policy thinkers and business leaders at a Lord Mayor\u2019s event in London the Prime Minister is expected to say: \u201cWe\u2019re hard-headed about what\u2019s necessary for our interests and security. But Britain\u2019s realism has always had values and this is a moment for moral clarity.\u201d<\/p>\n
As conflicts rage in the Middle East and Ukraine, he will add: \u201cIn these dangerous times, we\u2019re not just defending a better vision of the future against those who would destroy it, we\u2019re marshalling our expertise, our people and our alliances to bring that future into being.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo we\u2019ll continue to stand up for what is right…and show that our values will prevail.\u201d<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve argued for it for decades. But now we must help make it a reality.<\/p>\n \u201cSo, to the UK\u2019s friends across the region and to our communities in this country I pledge to redouble British efforts to this end.\u201d<\/p>\n Referring to Ukraine, the Prime Minister will add: \u201cThe last year has shown that Russia cannot win\u2026 Since their invasion, Russia has suffered over a quarter of a million casualties. Half of the territory they seized has been taken back. And Putin has faced a more united response than he ever imagined.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a self-inflicted strategic calamity. Putin\u2019s vain hope is that we lose patience but we never will.\u201d<\/p>\n Mr Sunak has made deals with international counterparts to strengthen UK defences, boost trade and tackle migration problems.<\/p>\n The UK also agreed the Windsor Framework on Northern Ireland with the EU.<\/p>\n There are also migration pacts with France, Italy and Albania, \u201cenhanced strategic partnerships\u201d with Japan and Singapore and entry to the CPTPP trade deal with an area of half a billion people.<\/p>\n Britain also hosted an AI Safety Summit to broker the first international statement on the risks of the technology.<\/p>\n The Premier is further expected to say: \u201cThese treaties and alliances speak to something deeper: our willingness to act, to shape the world, not be shaped by it, wherever there\u2019s a challenge, wherever there\u2019s a threat, wherever we can promote peace and security.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
