Ukraine: Defence Equipment

Asked by Cameron ThomasIndependentForeign, Commonwealth and Development OfficeTabled Answered 4 March 2026UIN 115743

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if she will have discussions with Cocos Island National Park Rangers on the repurposing of discarded fishing equipment into anti-drone nets for Ukraine.

Answered by Stephen Doughty

This would not be a matter for the UK Government, but I thank the Hon Member for his commitment to the Ukrainian cause, and he may wish to consider writing to the Costa Rican and Ukrainian ambassadors so they can jointly consider his suggestion.
