The Government agrees with the Committee that Russia must honour its commitments under the Vienna Document as an OSCE participating State. The Vienna Document is a key confidence and security building measure to build transparency and reduce risk. It is incumbent on all participating States, including Russia, to abide by the letter and spirit of the Document, and the international norms it commits us to. The Helsinki Final State and the prohibition of any use of force to change borders. By its use of force against the territorial integrity of Ukraine, Russia has clearly violated international law and contravened these principles. We continue to call on Russia to use the OSCE processes and mechanisms available, including through responding to valid questions raised under Chapter III of the Vienna Document and to which Russia has not provided satisfactory answers to date.
