Britain is supplying depleted uranium rounds to Ukraine. These rounds will cause environmental and health issues long after the conflict. This is how much the west cares about Ukraine in practice. (declassifieduk.org)

Is the west forcing Ukraine to take and use that ammunition, or is Ukraine actually requesting for them?

Friendly reminder: Russia could end this war today by leaving Ukraine. Thus every enviromental or other damage in Ukraine is ultimately Russia's fault by a huge margin.
