A History lesson from Putin

Boris denies it, but Putin mentioned David Arakhamiya, the leader of the Servant of the People party in the Ukrainian parliament, and head of the Ukrainian delegation in talks with Russia.
Mr Arakhamiya cited a previous visit by Mr Johnson to Kyiv as forming part of the decision not to negotiate with Moscow in 2022. Mr Johnson had allegedly said that Ukraine “shouldn’t sign anything with them at all – and let’s just fight”.
“Because as Mr Arakhamiya put it, we could have stopped those hostilities with war a year and a half ago already. But the British persuaded us and we refused this. Where is Mr Johnson now? And the war continues.”Last edited by Fraidycat; 10 February 2024, 04:53.Comment

To think that a country would go to war purely based on the recommendation of another state's leader is foolish and simplistic.Last edited by Zigenare; 12 February 2024, 05:52.Comment
