About it the Secretary of state for foreign and Commonwealth Affairs of the United Kingdom of great Britain and Northern Ireland, Boris Johnson said at a joint press conference with Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman in London as part of the International conference on reforms in Ukraine.

According to him, the consequences of Russia’s actions and its policy of revenge did not go unnoticed in Britain.
“The United Kingdom is the second country that has made the greatest contribution to NATO,” Johnson added, remembering the placement in the East of Europe powerful military forces in the framework of the decision on the strengthening of the Alliance presence in the region.
