Johnson called the Normandy format on the settlement in Ukraine a "diplomatic imitation"

It is reported by TASS with reference to the Rada TV channel.

“We then applied some kind of sanctions, launched this diplomatic imitation - the Norman process,” Johnson said.

He also added that the West has achieved nothing with the sanctions imposed against Russia.
