An emotional scene at the British Prime Minister's press conference in Warsaw.
During his state visit to Poland, Boris Johnson sharply condemned Russia's actions in Ukraine.
Boris Johnson, UK Prime Minister
"I say to Vladimir Putin and his regime: the only way out of this quagmire is to stop the tanks, turn back and take the path to peace."
Britain will continue to support Ukraine for as long as necessary.
Despite these statements, the present founder of an anti-corruption organization in Ukraine, Daria Kaleniuk, burst at the collar.
NATO must at least protect the airspace of western Ukraine.
Daria Kaleniuk, Founder Anti Corruption Action Center
»NATO is afraid of the Third World War.
But it has already started.
And Ukrainian children are now suffering from it.
You are talking about further sanctions, Prime Minister, but Roman Abramovich is not sanctioned.
His children are not being bombed, they are in London.«
The billionaire Roman Abramovich owns, among other things, the football club Chelsea London.
Abramovich is one of many Russian oligarchs who have settled in London.
Domestically, Boris Johnson is under a lot of pressure to tighten sanctions against the super-rich and often close to Putin Russians in his own country.
Daria Kaleniuk, Founder Anti Corruption Action Center
»Putin's children are in the Netherlands, in Germany, in their villas.
Were the villas confiscated?
I do not think so.
My family, my team on the other hand, we cry.
We don't know where to go.
That's what's happening, Prime Minister."
Boris Johnson, UK Prime Minister
'Thank you very much for your question and for coming here today.
I'm glad you were able to come here.
I just want to say that I realize that as the UK Government we cannot help in the way you would like.
I'm quite honest about that.«
NATO rules out direct intervention in the Ukraine war, since Ukraine is not part of the alliance area and this could lead to a direct war between Russia and NATO - with unforeseeable consequences.
Britain is supporting Ukraine with weapons, apparently anti-tank systems and ammunition, among other things.
The country is also ready to take in refugees from the war zone.
