The UK should boycott the Sochi Paralympics 2014 to protest Russian aggression in the Ukraine
Russia is currently engaging in military activities in the Ukraine in direct contravention of international laws laid out in the UN founding charter and guarantees of Ukrainian sovereignty given by the UK, US and Russia in 1994.
In such an atmosphere it would be morally incorrect to send British Paralympic athletes to Sochi and indeed, it could present a dangerous situation for our athletes if conflict broke out.
The UK should therefore not participate in these games unless Russia steps back from its aggressive activities in the Ukraine and the United Kingdom should encourage all other nations to do the same.
