Boris Johnson: Russia threatens not only Ukraine, but also the Republic of Moldova and Georgia
Russia continues military pressure on Ukraine and the danger of a military invasion is obvious, said British Prime Minister Boris Johnson during a visit to Kiev, warning that the Moscow administration is threatening other states, including Moldova and Georgia.
“There are those who say that we are exaggerating the threats, that the United States and the United Kingdom are amplifying things. But service reports show otherwise. There is a clear and present danger, “said Boris Johnson, according to The Guardian.
“Vladimir Putin has sought to impose a new Yalta and an area of influence,” the British prime minister added, warning that Russia’s ambitions would continue. “It will not be just Ukraine, we must not think of Georgia, the Republic of Moldova and other countries,” Boris Johnson said.
The London leader stressed that the United Kingdom and the United States will immediately impose massive sanctions against Russia in the event of a military attack on Ukraine, according to Mediafax.
For his part, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said during a meeting with Boris Johnson that the Ukrainian army would “fight to the end” in the event of a Russian attack. “It will not be a war between Ukraine and Russia. It will be a European war, a full-fledged war, “said Volodymyr Zelensky.
