She will advocate a “need to disengage” from international bodies if they are “taken over by activists or by autocratic regimes like China or Russia”.
“But when faced with a regime with no respect for the law, we need to be realistic. We can no longer simply put our trust in international partnerships or supranational institutions as ends in themselves.
“And if international bodies are taken over by activists, or by autocratic regimes like China or Russia, we must use our influence to stop them. And if that fails, we will need to disengage.”
She has also previously hinted that she could advocate for pulling the UK out of the ECHR.
Badenoch will say that “our foreign policy should seek to support our national interest” and “sovereignty must be at the core of our foreign policy”.
“That is not a selfish objective, it is realism – because you cannot help others if you cannot help yourself. Strengthening Britain must be the principal objective at the heart of everything we do.”
Her speech comes days before Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer heads to Washington, where he is expected to discuss Russia’s war in Ukraine with Donald Trump while also hoping to contain a growing transatlantic rift.
Sir Keir is expected to discuss his calls for a US “backstop” to a peace agreement in Ukraine, as well as defence spending.
The Prime Minister is also under pressure to use the trip to confirm a timeline to raise UK defence spending to 2.5% of national income.
