Green Party response to deepening Ukraine crisis
22 February 2022
Responding to the deepening crisis in Ukraine, co-leader of the Green Party, Carla Denyer, said:
“Now Russian troops have entered the two breakaway republics of Donetsk and Luhansk, the UK and international community must respond immediately with robust and forceful sanctions. It is essential that these target the Russian leadership and elite whilst minimising the harm caused to ordinary Russians. We stand in solidarity with Ukraine in the face of this unprovoked and outrageous Russian aggression.
“It is also past time for the government to shut down the London money laundry for criminals and those connected with the Putin regime. The government should have done much more to investigate and prevent Russian interference in British politics, including donations to the Conservative party. This should have been cleaned up a long time ago.”
