British PM Johnson sets out six-point plan to stop Russia's invasion of Ukraine

Ukrinform reports this with reference to Reuters.

Ahead of meetings with the leaders of Canada, the Netherlands and Central Europe in London next week, Johnson said that Russia in this act of aggression “must fail and must be seen to fail”.

"It is not enough to express our support for the rules-based international order - we must defend it against a sustained attempt to rewrite the rules by military force,” Johnson said.

According to him, the six-point plan includes the creation of an “international humanitarian coalition" for Ukraine; support for Ukraine "in its efforts to provide for its own self-defence”; economic pressure on Moscow; resistance to Russia's "creeping normalisation" of its actions in Ukraine; diplomatic ways on de-escalation that must be pursued, but only with the full participation of Ukraine's legitimate government; "rapid campaign to strengthen security and resilience" among NATO countries.

After meetings with the prime ministers of Canada and the Netherlands on Monday, Johnson is due to receive on Tuesday the leaders of the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia, the countries facing an influx of refugees due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
