“The United Kingdom will work with our allies to step up military and economic support to Ukraine, strengthening their defenses as they turn the tide in this fight,” he said in a statement.
“We cannot and will not stand by while Russia grinds Ukraine’s towns and cities into dust,” Johnson said.
According to his office, Johnson will press Western allies at the Brussels summits to “step up a gear” in their responses to Moscow’s actions.
