After the defeat, Russia must return all occupied territories to Ukraine and pay reparations - Johnson

He admitted that the West made a mistake in 2014 when it conducted peace talks trying to normalize relations with Russia within the Normandy format.

 

"I don't see any way, any possibility that we can return to normal relations without Russia completely abandoning the territories it has seized, without paying reparations and the like," the British prime minister stressed.

 

Johnson stressed that he would like to find some kind of diplomatic solution. But he acknowledged that "it is difficult to find a way to negotiate seriously with someone who is now attacking and destroying your country." "I am convinced: if we are left alone in supporting the heroic resistance of the Ukrainians, the ways are finally lost," Johnson stressed.

 

He added that after Russia's defeat, we must work to rebuild Ukraine, to create a new Marshall Plan for it.
