Boris Johnson defends Trump’s Ukraine comments as provocative, urges European support for Ukraine

Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson defended U.S. President Donald Trump's recent comments on Ukraine, suggesting they are meant to provoke a reaction rather than convey historical accuracy. Johnson criticized European nations for being shocked by Trump, urging them to focus on supporting Ukraine instead. He emphasized that Ukraine did not start the war and compared its situation to historical events in the UK. Since leaving office, Johnson has actively engaged with U.S. Republicans to maintain support for Ukraine, including meetings with Trump.
