Ukraine: UK-USA Discussions

Lord Callanan Excerpts

Wednesday 19th November 2025 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Chapman of Darlington (Lab)]

I condemn the attack on the Polish railway. The attacks on Ukraine grow ever more deadly, and the attacks on Ukrainian energy supplies are particularly egregious as we approach the middle of winter. Putin’s actions belie the idea that he is genuinely seeking peace at the moment.

[Lord Callanan (Con)]

My Lords, I too could not disagree more with the noble Lord, Lord Campbell-Savours, because it is very clear that peace will never be achieved in Ukraine until Putin feels pressured to end the war. Can the Minister confirm that the UK will at least maintain the value in real terms of our military support to Ukraine next year?

[Baroness Chapman of Darlington (Lab)]

We are fully committed to maintaining our support to Ukraine militarily but also in all the other forms it takes.
