Speaking at a press conference, Johnson said: "Poland and the United Kingdom will not accept a world in which a powerful neighbor can intimidate or attack its neighbors." The Ukrainian president Volodimir Zelensky, denounced that the concentration of Russian soldiers in The borders of your country is a means of "psychological pressure". They are a total of 30,000 Russian soldiers deployed. Ukraine fears that they never leave but the Kremlin ensures that they will later be reflected at their bases.

"The surface that occupy these maneuvers, unprecedented by its magnitude, virtually impossible navigation in both seas," says Ukrainian protest on naval maneuvers. He holds Kiev that these maneuvers damage his economy. The Russian outdoor holder recalled that it is the sovereign right of any government to determine the duration of the military exercises he chooses to perform. He said it after the conversations in Moscow with the British Foreign Affairs Secretary, Liz Truss, who asked Russia to be consistent his affirmation that he has no plans to invade Ukraine with actions and move his troops from the border. The Black Sea is A crossroad crossroads with Ukraine, Russia, with an annexed Crimean peninsula and also with several NATO countries: the epicenter of this geopolitical pulse where Russia wants to dodge the EU again. Lavrov stated that Russia is not interested in a collective response from the European Union on the interpretation of the Principle of Security Indivivibility in Europe. Moscow expects an individual response from each of its member countries. "I have heard that instead of honest responses from each country, the EU wants to present a collective role that will not reflect the nuances of national postures," Lavrov said in his wheel with his British counterpart, Liz Truss. The head of Russian diplomacy predicted that in that case "the dialogue will not prosper" with the EU. Lavrov has written to his counterparts from the member countries of the Organization for Safety and Cooperation (OSCE) by asking them for the individual position on the principle of safety indivisibility in Europe.
