OREANDA-NEWS. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's plan did not come as a revelation to Moscow, as the economic strangulation of Russia is declared as an official task of British foreign policy, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said at a weekly briefing. According to her, London reaffirms the leading role in the anti-Russian efforts of the collective West.

In general, the announcement by London of fresh plans to counter the efforts to demilitarize and denazify Ukraine was no revelation. The economic strangulation of our country is openly declared as the official task of British foreign policy. Therefore, I answer briefly: so-so planchik, - said the diplomat.

Earlier, Johnson came up with a six-point "action plan" for Ukraine and said he would present it to the leaders of Canada, the Netherlands and Central Europe. It provides for supporting Ukraine's defense capability, increasing pressure on Russia, as well as using diplomacy to de-escalate, mobilizing an international humanitarian coalition for Ukraine, and strengthening NATO security.
