Lord Campbell-Savours
To ask His Majesty’s Government what discussions they have had with the government of the United States of America on recent developments in Ukraine.
The Senior Deputy Speaker (Lord Gardiner of Kimble)
My Lords, the first Oral Question is from the noble Lord, Lord Campbell-Savours, who is participating virtually.
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (Lord Collins of Highbury) (Lab)
My Lords, we share President Trump’s desire to bring this barbaric war to an end and remain in close touch with the US at every level. The Prime Minister spoke to President Trump most recently on 17 March and the Foreign Secretary spoke to his US counterpart on 19 March. A just and lasting peace in Ukraine is vital to UK national interests. We are playing a leading role in driving progress towards this goal together with the US, Ukraine and our international partners.
