PRESELI Pembrokeshire Member of Parliament, Stephen Crabb, has shown support for Ukraine in their courageous fight to defend their freedom and democracy against Vladimir Putin.
Speaking in the House of Commons this week, following the emergency statements given by the Prime Minister, Mr Crabb stressed the importance of maintaining a united front whilst pushing for the toughest economic sanctions possible. He also highlighted the cost and inconvenience that imposing such sanctions will have to UK interests, but noted that these equate to nothing compared to what the people of Ukraine are experiencing.
Commenting on the situation, Mr Crabb added: “The full-scale military onslaught that the intelligence agencies had warned about is happening. We must do everything in our power to stop Putin and his gangster government from destroying democracy and the livelihoods of the Ukrainian people. That means imposing the strictest possible sanctions.’
“It is extremely difficult to comprehend what the people of Ukraine are going through right now. But I have been struck all week by the depth of concern from Pembrokeshire constituents for the Ukrainian people. There is a real feeling of widespread shock and alarm and we all stand united with Ukraine during this dark time. Pembrokeshire stands with Ukraine.”
