PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(2 December 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if he will make an assessment of the implications for his policies of the (a) expulsion of a UK diplomat by Russia and (b) travel bans issued by Russia on UK officials and Ministers.

Asked by:
Wendy Morton (Conservative)

Answer

The UK condemns harassment of diplomats in the strongest terms including the malicious and completely baseless accusations made against FCDO staff in Russia. We do not comment on specific Russian travel bans. No Minister will be visiting Russia in the current circumstances of their egregious actions not least their continued barbarous and illegal war against Ukraine.
