    It’s clearly unsustainable for a humanitarian organisation like the NHS to have any commercial links whatsoever with Putin’s murderous regime. The small minority of trusts who retain links with Gazprom need to rethink this as a matter of urgency.

    NHS trusts are paying Russian owned Gazprom millions in energy bills, according to

    Foreign Secretary confirms we are now looking at secondary sanctions e.g sanctions against any company that trades with Russia wherever they are from. Big and important step forward

    If Germany can manage more than 2% of GDP, time to ask whether all Europeans should be matching the US 3.7% of GDP on defence. Now cannot be the right moment for the UK to cut troops, tanks and planes...

    Wow. Scholz has just announced that Germany will spend MORE than 2% of its GDP on defence every year from now on. Long overdue, but a sign that Germany has a leader who gets the scale of the moment we are in.

    Former foreign secretary tells we have woken up with the “biggest threat to democratic life that we have had in our lifetimes.” Says this a long term strategy - wants to see govt increase defence spending and assist militarily.

    But even on a grim day like today we should not lose hope. Authoritarian leaders always underestimate the resolve of democracies. We can be slow to get going but an alliance of countries with a shared belief in freedom will always have an unshakeable resolve.

    Finally we cannot look at Russia and China separately. Both are deeply committed to upending the US/UK designed post-45 order. China will look at what happens in Ukraine carefully to gauge what the Western response would be to an invasion of Taiwan.

    If there is to be a global alliance of democracies to defend the rule of law, European countries need to show their willingness to step up in our own back yard.

    Thirdly and more challengingly Europe surely now needs to match the 3.5% of GDP that the US spends on defence. The UK’s integrated review was a step in the right direction but is now out of date. Surely the UK cannot be cutting the army at a time like this?

    But that does not mean we cannot offer military support to the Ukrainians to make this invasion as difficult as possible. Ukraine needs to be a millstone round Putin’s neck not a triumphant step towards the restoration of the USSR.
