Johnson pointed out that no disinformation from the Kremlin can hide the truth, that the Russian president “is desperate, his invasion is failing, and the determination of Ukraine has never been stronger,” according to a statement released by his downing Downing Street official.

“I will do everything in my power to starve Putin’s war machine. We are stepping up our sanctions and military support, as well as reinforcing our humanitarian support package to help those in need on the ground.” The Prime Minister stressed that his country has been at the forefront of supporting the International Criminal Court’s investigation into the atrocities committed in Ukraine.
