The Government welcomes the growing number of companies, organisations, and governments joining the international community in isolating Russia, both diplomatically and financially.

The Government has always been clear there would be massive consequences and a severe cost for any Russian military incursion into Ukraine. Russia’s assault on Ukraine is an unprovoked, premeditated and needless attack against a sovereign democratic state. The UK and our international partners stand united in condemning the Russian government’s reprehensible actions.
