Demand we do more to help Ukraine and sign the petition
Fraser Newman has a petition to Parliament stating:
That the House of Representatives enacts an autonomous sanctions regime against the Russian Federation under urgency.
I believe that the Russian Federation has waged a war of aggression without justification against the sovereign nation of Ukraine, transgressed its borders, attacked its cities, and killed civilians. In the absence of an autonomous sanctions regime, New Zealand is unable to join our allies in strongly sanctioning the Russian Federation for its aggression.
The Government’s stance of not imposing any sanctions on Russia unless Russia agrees to them can’t be allowed to stand. Let them know they are wrong, and totally out of step with world opinion.
