Proceeding contribution from David Lammy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 February 2025. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Ukraine.


Ukraine

The right hon. Gentleman has reminded the House of the seriousness, and the responsibilities, that we have as permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. That seriousness is underpinned by the UN Charter, which Russia breached, and in doing so it has made a serious hole in the way the Security Council works. Let us get beyond that; but if we are to do so, Russia should withdraw and should come to the table with the central issue of peace and making amends at its heart.
