Deputy leader of the Holos Party Inna Sovsun told PA Mr Johnson had always been a “great friend to Ukraine”. “Over in Ukraine, people are very much concerned,” she said. “I understand that there are different assessments of Boris Johnson himself and people look at him very differently, but we in Ukraine, now, look at different Western politicians from a single standpoint: the level of support to Ukraine. “We don’t have the luxury to debate anything else, except for that.” The UK has provided significant military and financial aid to Ukraine since Russia’s invasion began on February 24. “He was really driving the support, the political support, for the country,” Ms Sovsun said. “He was very outspoken, he was always on Ukraine’s side. “We are very much worried if this policy of the UK Government will continue.”
