Moscow ramps up criticism of Britain’s bid to be at helm of fight to protect Ukraine from Russian invasion
The Kremlin moved to belittle the British prime minister, Boris Johnson, on Wednesday, describing him as “utterly confused” and calling British diplomacy a waste of time.
The concerted effort to ridicule Britain’s efforts to put itself at the helm of the fight to protect Ukraine from a Russian invasion came the day after Johnson flew to Kyiv to warn such an invasion would be a humanitarian, political and military disaster for Russia.
