UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson said Tuesday that British troops will not fight Russian forces in Ukraine, adding that recent military reinforcements are “nothing more than defensive measures.” “I want to be crystal clear on that point: We will not fight Russian forces in Ukraine,” Johnson said.
“As we support the people of Ukraine, we must also shore up our shared resilience to protect our people and our values. These are nothing more than defensive measures, which have been the essence of NATO for more than 70 years,” he added.
Speaking alongside NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas following a visit to Estonia’s Tapa Military Base, Johnson also noted that recent reinforcements were firmly within NATO borders.
