Petition Action

Award the George Cross to Ukraine, due to its people's heroism during invasion.

Petition Details

As with Malta during WW2, Ukraine is a worthy recipient of the George Cross, due to the heroism of its people and armed forces.

I would like parliament to debate and request the queen to award the medal.

Additional Information

The George Cross was awarded to the island of Malta by King George VI in a letter to the island's Governor, Lieutenant-General Sir William Dobbie, so as to "bear witness to the heroism and devotion of its people" during the great siege they underwent in the early part of World War II.
