That the Parliament condemns the UK Government for what it believes to be the easing of sanctions on Russia and Vladimir Putin’s regime; notes that additional sanctions have been in place since the full-scale, illegal invasion of Ukraine in February 2022; considers this decision to be an utter betrayal of the fighting men and women of Ukraine; recognises the sacrifices made, not just by fighters in Ukraine, but also by civilians who are facing aerial bombardment from Russia on a nightly basis, and calls on the UK Government to immediately reverse this decision.
