Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government how they define (1) a hostile state, and (2) which states they consider currently meet that definition.
This question was answered on 25th September 2023
HMG does not have an agreed definition of the term ‘hostile state[s]’. While the term is sometimes used by officials and Ministers, it is not centrally defined and does not describe any specific category of states.
