To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the government of Russia’s future global priorities as set out in the foreign policy strategy document released by the Kremlin on 31 March.
Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)
We note Russia's Foreign Policy Concept, which identifies sovereignty, the legal foundations of the international system, and global stability as core to Russia's global priorities. Russia's unprovoked and brutal invasion of Ukraine, in clear disregard for the UN Charter, is entirely contrary to each of these principles. In reality, Putin's war has left Russia isolated on the international stage. If these are truly Russia's priorities, it should withdraw its forces from Ukraine immediately.
