I utterly condemn the sentencing of Aiden Aslin and Shaun Pinner held by Russian proxies in eastern Ukraine.
They are prisoners of war. This is a sham judgment with absolutely no legitimacy.
My thoughts are with the families. We continue to do everything we can to support them.

Putin's calls for mobilisation are a sure sign his barbaric invasion is failing.
Any sham referendums in Ukrainian territory will not be recognised.
@vonderleyen and I are united in our commitment to supporting Ukraine for as long as it takes.

Just arrived in Birmingham and it’s great to be here for my first @Conservatives Party Conference as Prime Minister.
Together we’re focused on growing our economy and getting Britain moving. #CPC22

One year on from Putin’s barbaric invasion, we remember the Ukrainians who have lost their lives in defence of freedom.
Ukraine must prevail.
Ukraine will prevail.

Today I signed a deal with Singapore covering £17.6bn of trade - the 2nd biggest agreement we’ve signed in #AsiaPacific 🇬🇧🇸🇬
✅It secures certainty for biz
✅Means deeper future ties in digital & services trade
✅ Is further proof we can succeed as an independent trading nation

I have written for the Sunday @Telegraph about what happened during my time in Downing Street and the lessons I have learned… 👇🏻
‘I assumed upon entering Downing Street my mandate would be respected. How wrong I was’

I have summoned the Russian ambassador to meet me and explain Russia’s illegal, unprovoked invasion of Ukraine. We will be imposing severe sanctions and rallying countries in support of Ukraine.
33
Appalled by atrocities in Bucha and other towns in Ukraine. Reports of Russian forces targeting innocent civilians are abhorrent.
The UK is working with others to collect evidence and support @IntlCrimCourt war crimes investigation. Those responsible will be held to account.

The Prime Minister has my 100% backing in today's vote and I strongly encourage colleagues to support him.
He has delivered on covid recovery and supporting Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression. He has apologised for mistakes made.
We must now focus on economic growth.
39
I can confirm Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Anoosheh Ashoori will return to the UK today, and Morad Tahbaz has been released from prison on furlough. They will be reunited with their families later today.
We will continue to work to secure Morad's departure from Iran.

We completely reject any questions over sovereignty of the Falklands.
The Falklands are part of the British family and we will defend their right to self determination.
China must respect the Falklands' sovereignty 🇬🇧🇫🇰
41
My thoughts are with the people of Japan today in remembering the extraordinary life of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
His warm friendship with the United Kingdom over many years leaves a lasting legacy in the close ties of friendship our people enjoy today.

I’m ending the short-term thinking on energy once and for all.
I’m acting now so people and businesses are supported with a new Energy Price Guarantee.
I will tackle the root cause of the issue by boosting domestic energy supply to ensure we’re not in this position ever again.
46
Pleased that colleagues have backed the Prime Minister. I support him 100%. Now's the time to get on with the job.
