Dear Friend,
Our thoughts are with the people of Ukraine: the country is paying a heavy economic and human price for this conflict.
We urge our government to get all parties to the negotiating table. Only dialogue and opennes to the concerns of others will make a difference. This is where government efforts must be focused.
Please, use our online lobby tool to contact the Prime Minister to find an end to the conflict in Ukraine.

This conflict also presents a wider threat: the existential risk of a nuclear war between the United States and Russia. Defence experts are warning that it is now closer than at any time since the 1970s.
Even one nuclear warhead could kill and injure a million people. Its effects would be felt long after the initial explosion, contaminating the environment and causing long-term health consequences including cancer and genetic damage.
In the face of such threats, a strong anti-nuclear movement is urgently needed. CND campaigns to see an end to all nuclear weapons. Join us, and help win a world free from the threat of nuclear war.
