<p>British Embassy officials have attended Vladimir Kara-Murza's court hearings, the
most recent being on 25 January. We will continue to attend, but remain vigilant to
attempts by the Russian government to exclude diplomats from future hearings. The
UK continues to raise Mr Kara-Murza's case with the Russian authorities and call for
his release. We are providing consular support to his family and continue to request
consular access. Last month I [Minister Docherty] met with Mr Kara-Murza's wife, Evgenia.
We condemn the politically motivated detention of Mr Kara-Murza, and of all those
who speak out against Russia's invasion of Ukraine.</p>
