James Cleverly – 2022 Comments on Latest Sanctions Against Russia
The comments made by James Cleverly, the Foreign Secretary, on 30 September 2022.
The UK utterly condemns Putin’s announcement of the illegal annexation of Ukrainian territory. We will never recognise the results of these sham referendums or any annexation of Ukrainian territory.
The Russian regime must be held to account for this abhorrent violation of international law. That’s why we are working with our international partners to ramp up the economic pressure through new targeted services bans.
What happens in Ukraine matters to us all, and the UK will do everything possible to assist their fight for freedom.
