‘When I was foreign secretary, he kicked out those Russian spies’


Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has declared that former President Donald Trump was correct in his approach to Russia and Ukraine, noting that during his tenure as foreign secretary, Trump expelled Russian spies from the U.S., and Putin never invaded Ukraine, as he did under the Obama and Biden administrations.

“When I was foreign secretary, he kicked out those Russian spies, 60 of them. So he can surprise very much on the upside,” Johnson stated in an interview with Times Radio.

“I happen to believe that when Donald Trump says that had he been president in 2022, there would have been no Russian invasion of Ukraine; my view is that that is a credible assertion. I really do think that’s credible,” Johnson asserted.

How kind of him to speak well of someone who would call him a "loser."
My take is that Putin figured with a 2020 Trump win, he could stroll into Ukraine and have half of Eastern Europe by 2024--with no American opposition and a weakened NATO, which the US might have left.
But in 2020 American voters knew better.
By 2022, Putin figures he had to do it the hard way. By all objective standards, Biden and America were thriving. He gave up hope on getting an appeaser back.
