Proceeding contribution from Yvette Cooper (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 January 2026. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Arctic Security.
Arctic Security
I thank the hon. Member for his support for the coalition of the willing. He will know that the UK and France set out a declaration of intent, and further work is under way on the security guarantees. I caution him against drawing an equivalence between the US and Russia, which I hope he did not mean to do, because it is obviously Russia that poses a significant threat to Ukraine and the whole of Europe, while the US is a long-standing and close ally in defending security in Europe.
