Asked about Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s plans to win this year, Johnson said he was optimistic about Kyiv’s ability and recalled his unexpected visit to Kyiv a week before the G7 and NATO summits.
“I went to Ukraine before this series of summits began, precisely in order to understand the vision of Zelenskyi and the Ukrainian authorities. And they see a way to change the dynamics of the war this year, even in the coming months. And so now it is important to help, as much as we can, so that Ukraine holds on,” he said.
The British Prime Minister agreed with the need to supply new weapons to Ukraine.
“This is related to the supply of MLRS to Ukraine, which is of particular importance. And I am impressed by how effectively the Ukrainians are learning to use them,” he added.
“I believe that Ukraine has what it takes to push Russia back to the borders where they were before February 24, 2022. And this is exactly the result that, as the Ukrainian President says, he plans to achieve.”
