National Security and Russia

Proceeding contribution from Edward Leigh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 26 March 2018. It occurred during Debate on National Security and Russia.

I must finish now.

There is a very sizable minority of people in those states who are not that well treated. Many Russians believe fervently in their soul that those minorities are not well treated and that President Putin has the right to interfere. We have NATO. The Baltic states are not Ukraine. We must not allow what happened in 1940 to happen to the Baltic states. Therefore, words are not enough. We must will the means. We must spend more on defence and put the troops into the Baltic states.
