Conservative — New Forest East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 8 January 2026

Debate

Human Rights Abuses: Magnitsky Sanctions

Contribution

In support of what the hon. Gentleman is saying, does he agree that it is significant how important even a single ship of this fleet is to the Russian authorities that in desperation yesterday, in a final attempt to stop it being seized, they allowed the Russian flag to be put on one of the vessels, in the hope that that would deter the Americans from gaining control of it? Fortunately, it did not.
