Bishop of Leeds asks about role of the US in the future of Ukraine

The Bishop of Leeds asked a question on the role of the United States in the future of Ukraine on 28th April 2025, following a government statement on the progress of peace talks in London:

The Lord Bishop of Leeds: My Lords, that position is very honourable, but the Minister said a moment ago that Russia should not determine the future of Ukraine. Should the United States?

Baroness Chapman of Darlington (Lab, FCDO): It is for the people of Ukraine to determine their own future. That has been the bedrock of the position of this Government from the very beginning, and I do not see that changing.
