Britain will be with Ukraine until victory – Johnson

It was the war unleashed by Russia that led to the fact that for the British “the electricity bill was doubling,” Johnson said.

With each day of the confrontation between Ukraine and Russia, the role of Kyiv grows, and the Kremlin loses its power. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson wrote this on Saturday, August 27, in a column for The Mail.

He also emphasized that the war in Ukraine is a “shock” for Europe.

“What no one expected was Vladimir Putin’s decision – and it was his only decision – to launch a vicious and senseless attack on an innocent European country on February 24,” the prime minister wrote.

At the same time, the prime minister noted that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine had a significant impact on the British. He noted that it is because of Putin that prices for food and energy resources have risen in Britain.

“It’s the war unleashed by Russia that has caused Britain’s electricity bill to double, and that’s one of Putin’s goals,” Johnson said.

“Putin believes that soft-hearted European politicians will not have the courage to fight him, and that this winter the West will lift sanctions and start demanding Russian oil and gas and push the Ukrainians to come to terms with the Kremlin, however painful it may be. But it’s clearly not going to happen,” Johnson said.

Johnson noted that the West must be resilient, otherwise Putin will choose a new target for himself.

“We must continue to support the Ukrainians – and their military successes are still remarkable. Volodymyr Zelensky has shown that his country is fundamentally invincible,” the prime minister said.

Recall that the President of France Emmanuel Macron and the Prime Minister of Britain Boris Johnson had a telephone conversation, in which they confirmed their readiness to support Ukraine in the war against Russia “as long as necessary .”
