Johnson warned of the consequences of forcing Ukraine to "unfavorable peace"

“If Ukraine is defeated or forced to accept peace on unfavorable terms, the consequences for freedom on the entire planet will be horrendous.

This opinion is shared by all NATO members," TASS quoted him as saying.

According to the British Prime Minister, the decision on the advisability of negotiations with Moscow should be taken in Kyiv.

At the same time, Johnson said that the Russian side "is not even offering a deal."

“In such conditions, the only logical and correct decision is to continue to support Ukraine, as we are already doing, and increase the military assistance provided,” he concluded.

Earlier, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky told the leaders of the G7 countries that now is “not the time for negotiations.”

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that the Kyiv authorities need to "prepare for a long war."

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called the statements of the West about the inadmissibility of negotiations between Moscow and Kyiv at this stage a manifestation of schizophrenia.
