Good news for Ukraine but also for global food security: before Russia's invasion Ukraine was seventh largest exporter of wheat, fourth largest exporter of barley, and the biggest exporter of sunflower seeds (used for oil and feed). Getting its exports back on track is vital.

I just spoke with the UK's newly appointed Foreign Secretary David Lammy and congratulated him on taking charge of UK diplomacy. I am grateful to my counterpart for reaffirming the UK’s ironclad support for Ukraine in all areas. We discussed next steps in our bilateral

Attacking innocent children. The most depraved of actions. We stand with Ukraine against Russian aggression - our support won’t falter.

Russia's strike on the Okhmatdyt Children’s Hospital in Kyiv is an appalling attack on Ukrainian civilians. My thoughts are with all the victims and their loved ones. The UK's support to Ukraine is iron-clad. We must hold those responsible for Putin's illegal war to account.

🚨 SANCTIONED: vessels used by Russia to enable illicit trade in Russian oil. Putin’s shadow fleet uses deceptive practices in an attempt to undermine sanctions. It is a serious risk to European maritime security, trade, and the environment. #EPC2024

The 'shadow fleet': a call to action - GOV.UK (gov.uk) - hopefully the beginning of much more coordinated work on this issue #EPC

Two years ago, Russia breached the UN Charter by orchestrating another illegal "annexation" of Ukraine’s sovereign territory, just as it did in Crimea in 2014. The UK's position is clear: Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, and Crimea are Ukraine. #StandWithUkraine

My thoughts are with all those affected by the senseless Russian strikes on Kyiv which have damaged the British Council building. Putin is killing children and civilians, and sabotaging hopes of peace. This bloodshed must end.
