Labour (Co-op) — Rochdale

Speaking in the House of Commons on 5 January 2026

Debate

Venezuela

Contribution

Does the Foreign Secretary agree that international rules-based order and international law should be a fundamental principle and practice of the UK, and that we expect other countries to uphold that in all circumstances?
