Labour — Pontefract, Castleford and Knottingley

Speaking in the House of Commons on 28 October 2025

Debate

Ukraine

Contribution

We have these discussions with countries across the world, urging them to support sanctions or to reduce their dependence on Russian oil and gas, which will reduce those imports and help us choke off the supply of Russian oil and gas from the market. That is why we have also begun to sanction designated refineries not just in Russia itself, but across the world.
