Labour — Pontefract, Castleford and Knottingley

Speaking in the House of Commons on 5 January 2026

Debate

Venezuela

Contribution

We have set out our continued commitment to international law and the importance of maintaining some of the underpinning rules-based alliances that are so important for sustaining the rules-based order. That is why we will continue to argue for international law and to maintain things such as the NATO alliance and the partnership, and it is why we will continue to raise these issues publicly and privately with our allies.
