Written Question
Ukraine: Politics and Government
Monday 23rd December 2024

Asked by: Lord Richards of Herstmonceux (Crossbench - Life peer)

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they support the recovery of all of Ukraine’s pre-2014 territory including Crimea; and, if not, what they are seeking to achieve through its assistance to Ukraine.

Answered by Baroness Chapman of Darlington - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

We will continue supporting Ukraine for as long as it takes to defend itself and secure a just and lasting peace. The clearest path to peace is for Russia to withdraw its troops from Ukraine tomorrow. It is for Ukraine to determine its position on its long-term future. A strong, sovereign, and secure Ukraine that is able to defend against and deter future aggression is in the UK's interest.
