→UK "democracy"
In her first address from 10 Downing Street on the evening of September 6, Truss, praising the legacy and achievements of her predecessor Boris Johnson, pledged "high-paying jobs [and] safe streets" for the British people. She identified her primary policies as tax-cutting, infrastructure-building, reform to the nationalized health-care system, and finding a solution to the nation's energy crisis (which she blamed on [[Vladimir Putin]]).<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hR6Mkkp1Jro Sky News Live]. 6 September 2022, two days before the Queen passed away.</ref>

The UK and NATO allegedly are supporting Ukrainian "democracy".
During the [[Donbas war]] crisis of 2022, Russian foreign minister [[Sergey Lavrov]] asked Truss whether [[London]] recognizes [[Moscow]]’s [[sovereignty]] over the regions of Rostov and Voronezh. Truss replied that the UK “will never recognize [[Russia]]’s sovereignty over these regions.” British Ambassador to Russia Deborah Bronnert had to intervene and remind the Foreign Secretary that these two regions are actually considered Russian territory even by the United Kingdom and in fact those regions have been part of Russia for over 1,000 years.<ref>https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/biden-warns-world-war-whils-truss-says-rostov-and-voronezh-are-not-russian</ref>
Foreign [[mercenary]] fighters are not protected by the [[Geneva Convention]]. When captured in a war zone, under martial law, they can be executed on the spot without trial. Under international law, they are criminals who kill people for profit. Nonetheless, these facts did not inhibit Truss, in the [[Russophobic]] hysteria gripping Western media, from actively encouraging young men across the planet to go get themselves killed, with no support from their own government,<ref>https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/liz-truss-british-fight-ukraine-russia-b984892.html</ref> and without informing these young fighters of any facts, if she indeed understood any facts that in an ordinary and sane world her job would require.<ref>https://www.lbc.co.uk/radio/presenters/iain-dale/liz-truss-green-light-for-brits-to-fight-in-ukraine-actually-illegal-david-davis/</ref> British Prime Minister [[Boris Johnson]] had to spend the next two months walking back her suggestion to UK citizens to violate both British and [[international law]].<ref>https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/prime-minister-boris-johnson-liz-truss-uk-government-ukraine-b2025893.html</ref>
British citizens who followed Truss's advice received the [[death penalty]] under international laws and norms.
As Foreign Minister, Truss added UK journalist [[Graham Phillips]], a British citizen, to the Russia sanctions list for uploading videos to [[Youtube]]. Phillips has reported from [[Donbas]] since the U.S.-backed [[Maidan coup]] in 2014. Phillips was simultaneously added to the [[Security Service of Ukraine]] (SBU) targeted assassination list, "[[Myrotvorets]]" along with other journalists, film makers, rock stars, and academics. The SBU works in tandem with the [[CIA]] and UK [[MI6]].
Truss opposed the democratic referendums held in the [[Lugansk]] and [[Donetsk]] Republics for admission to the [[Russian Federation]].
