Conservative — Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale

Speaking in the House of Commons on 5 January 2026

Debate

Venezuela

Contribution

Can the Foreign Secretary say a bit more about engagement with the Commonwealth? Not only are there two Commonwealth countries immediately adjacent to Venezuela, but there is an important Commonwealth network across the Caribbean. Surely there must be a danger at this moment that some of those countries might think that their interests would be better served by looking to the United States rather than to the Commonwealth and the UK.
