Comment by Liz Kendall
UK Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology; Labour MP for Leicester West
And second, by working more closely with our international partners, particularly other so-called middle power nations, including on setting the standards for how AI is deployed. Everyone needs confidence in how AI tools will be used, wherever they are in the world. [...] But there is more we can and must do to build our sovereign capabilities and increase our leverage by working with our allies, especially other middle power nations.AI Verified source (Apr 28, 2026)

The GOV.UK transcript of Liz Kendall’s speech at RUSI on 28 April 2026 does contain this passage and attributes it to her, but not in the exact form submitted: it reads “And second, by working …” and later “But there is more we can and must do …”. Because the submitted quote omits those words without marking the omissions, it is a lightly edited composite rather than a fully verbatim quote.

Quote confirmed via web search as being from Liz Kendall's RUSI speech (April 28, 2026) on AI and sovereignty. Multiple sources (RUSI, GOV.UK, Computer Weekly, Mirage News, Public Sector Executive) confirm the content about working with "middle power nations," setting AI standards, and building sovereign capabilities. Vote "for" the statement "Democratic middle powers should jointly develop frontier AI and share its benefits globally" aligns with Kendall's explicit middle-powers alliance pitch involving France, Germany, and Canada. WebFetch on gov.uk returned 403 but the URL matches official format and content is confirmed.
