Speaking at Prime Minister’s Questions, James Sunderland pays tribute to the support given by the British Government and the British people to the people of Ukraine and seeks an assurance from the Prime Minister that our support for Ukraine and all our NATO allies will continue to be unwavering.
James Sunderland (Bracknell) (Con)
Q2. Two years ago last Saturday, Russian forces launched their heinous attack on Ukraine. The response of the British Government and the British people has been magnificent. I pay tribute to all those who have done so much, not least in my own constituency of Bracknell, where Ukrainian people have been so warmly welcomed. We must never bow to tyranny, so could the Prime Minister please assure the House that our support for Ukraine and all our NATO allies will continue to be unwavering? (901696)
The Prime Minister (Rishi Sunak)
I join my hon. Friend in thanking people up and down the country, including the people of Bracknell, for welcoming Ukrainian families into their homes and communities. During my visit to Ukraine in January I announced a major new package of support, including £2.5 billion of military assistance. Last week, we announced 50 new sanctions that target individuals and businesses that are sustaining Putin’s illegal war machine. Our support to Ukraine will never waver.
