Ukraine is still at the heart of an important diplomatic ballet. For the first time in a long time, Vladimir Putin speaks out. The Russian head of state hopes for a diplomatic solution, while continuing to deploy troops in Belarus.
In Moscow (Russia), Vladimir Putin comes out of his silence about Ukraine, but does not reveal his intentions. In Kiev, Boris Johnson, the British Prime Minister, flies to the aid of Ukraine. While in Belarus, Russian soldiers settle in their camp. This is the new military deal, in this country allied with the Kremlin where an undetermined number of soldiers will engage, in a few days, in joint maneuvers with the Belarusian army.
Enough to further increase the pressure on Ukraine, where a parade of Western officials comes to support the president Volodymyr Zelensky. Boris Johnson is the latest. He threatens to strike at the wallet of those close to the Kremlin, if Russia chooses war. “We are preparing a set of sanctions and other measures that will be implemented as soon as the first tip of the Russian toe crosses Ukrainian territory”, confirms the British Prime Minister.
