- Westminster_Russia_Forum abstract "Westminster Russia Forum (WRF) is a UK-wide voluntary organisation, which aims to promote improved relations with Russia through greater understanding. It originally launched as Conservative Friends of Russia but closed down and re-branded in just a few months amongst a scandal involving allegations of close links to the Russian authorities and resignations of their supporters in the parliamentary Conservative Party. Now Westminster Russia Forum states no support for any political party in Russia or the UK, asserting that it is a non-partisan group, which promotes an open platform to debate various issues such as international diplomacy, energy security and internal political systems.The group was officially launched in late 2012 by Richard Royal and has since gone on to host numerous events throughout the UK, covering a variety of topics such as LGBT rights in Russia with guest speakers Peter Tatchell and Claire Harvey.The group hit the headlines in 2013 when it successfully spearheaded the campaign to see British World War II veterans of the Arctic Convoy campaign awarded their Ushakov Medals by the Russian Government. The campaign included a letter signed by thirty two Members of Parliament which was submitted to the Honours and Decorations (HD) Committee on Remembrance Day, requesting that the veterans be rewarded with a medal in recognition of the part they played in the vital Arctic Convoy missions throughout the Second World War.".
