Mr President, I speak not only as a Briton, as a Londoner, and as a foreign secretary.

But I say to the Russian representative, on his phone as I speak, that I stand here also as a Black man whose ancestors were taken in chains from Africa, at the barrel of a gun to be enslaved, whose ancestors rose up and fought in a great rebellion of the enslaved.

Imperialism: I know it when I see it. And I will call it out for what it is.

David Lammy, the U.K.’s foreign secretary
