Russia–Ukraine war
Michael GALEA (South-Eastern Metropolitan) (10:07): In four days time it will be the three-year anniversary of Russia’s unprovoked, egregious invasion of Ukraine. It is a sombre anniversary that many of us in this place will be commemorating, and it is my profound hope that this chamber and all Western democracies remain steadfast in our support for Ukraine in its time of need. I hope that all world leaders join in with that too, because anything less from any world leader would be an act of pathetic cowardice and appeasement. Slava Ukraini. Heroiam Slava.
