Proceeding contribution from Patrick Mercer (Independent (affiliation)) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 March 2014. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Ukraine.
Ukraine
I have been visiting Crimea every year since 1992. This morning I was speaking to the parents of my godchild in Simferopol. They described the rapture with which the people of Crimea are greeting the Russian troops, but they are extremely concerned about the illegal, rough and appalling behaviour of the Cossack movement—not the Cossack people, but the Cossack movement. May I ask the Secretary of State to give full attention to this gang of unpleasant creatures, and to emphasise that their conduct must be reformed?
