On the anniversary of the Chornobyl disaster, my thoughts are with all those affected by this catastrophe.

The UK has contributed over £130m to the disaster response and is firmly committed to cooperation on nuclear safety, to prevent such a tragedy happening again.

Thinking…

Illegal detainment. Brutal torture. Unlawful killings. 
  
The OSCE 4th Moscow Mechanism Report on Ukraine is indisputable evidence of Russian forces' callous disregard for the people of Ukraine. 
  
Russia must immediately release those it is holding illegally. 🇺🇦

The UK & Poland are deepening defence cooperation and continuing our unequivocal support for Ukraine.

Today I spoke at Poland’s Constitutional Day celebrations. I underlined the strength of our historic relationship, following Rishi Sunak’s visit to Poland this week. 🇬🇧🇵🇱…

Having worked closely with Fiona Bruce MP, UK FoRB Envoy Fiona Bruce and Deputy David Burrowes on key issues, such as the persecution of Christians & minorities overseas & of Uyghur Muslims, I am delighted to be delivering the International Freedom of Religion or Belief Bill. 🆓 🙏🏽

This…

Great to hear Lord Cameron setting out our determination to be a strong partner for Kazakhstan, on 📚education, 🍀climate change, trade and investment - including doing more to encourage SMEs, and ⛏️critical minerals.

Ukraine recovery and reconstruction must continue at pace so it can win the war and the peace.

At BIICL tonight, I discussed with Embassy of Ukraine to the UK how to unlock investment in 🇺🇦, including by supporting judicial reform to build investor confidence.

I'm constantly campaigning for more investment for Wealden, so I'm pleased that rural community projects will benefit from over £120,000 of government funding to help expand opportunities for improving infrastructures and green spaces. 🌳🏡

Do consider applying if you are…

An extra $61bn for Ukraine has now been agreed by the 🇺🇸 Senate.

Like the UK and across Europe, our friends in the United States are committed to help Ukraine defend itself.

United support against Russian aggression. We #StandWithUkraine - for as long as it takes.

My memory of Frank Field will remain as a gentleman, respectful and thoughtful. Will be missed.
Thoughts and prayers for his family.

Very good from Nus Ghani MP on TikTok this morning. 👏

Again for those at the back: if the PRC Government demands data from ByteDance, TikTok’s parent company, it is ILLEGAL under PRC law to refuse (and to disclose that a request has been made).

Chinese company TikTok should guarantee that no data (not just user data) will ever be shared with China.

TikTok throwback- waking up to the news in 🇺🇸. It’s taken years of focused international campaigning to expose TikTok parent company links to China and the power of data and algorithms.

Crucial announcement on increasing our defence spending to 2.5% - strengthening our defence spending will protect our shared prosperity and security.

We continue to #StandWithUkraine to ensure it has what it needs to win against Russian aggression. 🇺🇦
