As per the statement by Boris Johnson at the NATO headquarters in Brussels, the Prime Minister of Britain said that this was perhaps the most dangerous moment. He said that in the course of the next few days, in what is the biggest ever security crisis being faced by Europe in decades, they have got to get it right.

On Thursday, Boris Johnson said that the crisis with Ukraine has grown into one of the most dangerous moments for Europe in decades. Meanwhile, Boris’s top diplomat had talks with her Russian counterpart and stated that the Kremlin was not accepting lectures from the West. Amid the deadlock with Ukraine, the Russian forces had held sweeping manoeuvres in the northern parts of Ukraine in Belarus, which is part of the buildup of over 100,000 troops that have scared the West of an invasion. 

NATO has also increased its military deployments to strengthen its eastern flank, with the United States and has sent troops to Poland and Romania. Britain’s Royal Air Force Jet carrying 350 troops landed on Thursday in Poland in a move that followed London sending anti-tank missiles to Ukraine to help in strengthening its defences.

After speaking at the NATO headquarters in Brussels, the British PM later flew to Warsaw to meet with the Prime Minister of Poland and said that he believed the Russian President had not decided what he might do with Ukraine and added that the West must use the sanctions and military resolve along with diplomacy to avert the crisis in Europe. 

Johnson said that Poland and the United Kingdom will not accept a world in which any powerful neighbour can bully or attack their counterparts. The Prime Minister also said that if Russia wanted less NATO on the western borders of their country, this is exactly the wrong way to go ahead with. Johnson also stated that it was up to the Russian President to disengage and de-escalate the tensions with Ukraine. 

The President of Russia, Vladimir Putin said that it was continuing talks with the US and its allies and was also working towards a response to the security proposals made by the West. The Secretary-General of NATO, Jens Stoltenberg said that he had sent a letter to the Foreign Minister of Russia, Sergey Lavrov repeating an invitation to hold a series of talks on the improvement of European Security. Lavrov had set a stern tone for the talks with the UK Foreign Secretary, Liz Truss, in Moscow who had warned Russia of the massive consequences of attacking Ukraine and had also said that the attack will carry severe costs.

She had urged the Kremlin to adhere to the international agreements that are committed to respecting the Independence and Sovereignty of Ukraine. It was then that Lavrov had rejected all the worries of the Western agencies and cited that Moscow will not stand for lectures. Russia has repeatedly said that it has no plans of invading Ukraine but it wanted the west to keep Ukraine along with other former Soviet countries out of NATO.
