Few minutes after news of Boris Johnson resignation as Prime Minister of the UK went viral, today, Thursday, July 7, Russia has reacted.
It was reported that embattled Prime Minister, Johnson was called out for his handling of allegations against Chris Pincher and other numerous other Tory scandals like Partygate.
On Thursday morning reports emerged that he was willing to resign as leader of the UK’s conservative party.
On the international scene though, Johnson has helped Ukraine with financial and military aid after the devastating Russian invasion, which had irked Russian leaders.
Speaking on Thursday, Kremlin spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov said:
‘He (Johnson) doesn’t like us, we don’t like him either’.
He added that reports of the end of Tory leader’s premiership were of little concern for Vladimir Putin and his government.
