Sanctions

Proceeding contribution from Matt Hancock (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 28 February 2022. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Sanctions.

I congratulate the Foreign Secretary and the Government on the swift action they have taken, including the action against the Russian central bank, and I commend her for her work to go further. Frankly, however, is it not desperate and indeed pitiful to try to blame words from Her Majesty’s Government for the outrageous Russian escalation of dangerous rhetoric yesterday, because the truth is that it is imperative for the stability of the international order that Putin fails?
