At the same time, the prime minister sends the heads of the Foreign and Defense Ministries to Russia.
“This NATO aid package will send a clear message to the Kremlin – we will not tolerate its destabilizing activities and will always show solidarity with our NATO partners in the face of Russian hostilities. If Russian President Vladimir Putin chooses the path of bloodshed and destruction, it will be a tragedy for Europe,” he said.
Johnson stressed that Ukraine should be free to determine its own future.
