A Message From Momentum Southampton 

“The Ukrainian people need your help.

On 24th February Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine.

Many Ukrainian cities are encircled and subjected to relentless bombardment. Millions have fled and millions are trapped. There’s a growing humanitarian crisis, water and electricity is cut off, food supplies and medicines are running short.

Putin has denied Ukraine’s right to exist, claiming the country is a fiction invented by Lenin’s Bolsheviks.

Putin also blames the invasion on NATO. While we do not support NATO intervention and neither do we think they’re a force for good, it’s not they who have invaded Ukraine.

This invasion is nothing to do with self-defence or protecting Russian speakers in Ukraine. It is a crude imperialist land grab, a plundering of Ukraine’s rich resources.

We demand that Russia removes its troops from Ukraine. Ukraine has the right to self-determination and the right to defend itself.

We also demand the British government provide as much support as possible to Ukrainian refugees.

War is not in the interest of working class people, it’s they who suffer the most. Working class people have more in common with each other than those who declare war and order them to fight.

Yes to workers solidarity, yes to solidarity with Ukraine.”
