“The question for us now is to be or not to be…I can give you a definitive answer: it’s definitely to be,” Zelenskyy told the lawmakers via video link through a translator, quoting from William Shakespeare’s play Hamlet. “Please increase the pressure of sanctions against this country and please recognise this country as a terrorist state, and please make sure that our Ukrainian skies are safe…Please make sure that you do what needs to be done.”Johnson, who has sought a central role in the international response to Russia’s invasion, said Britain would “press on” with supplying Ukraine with weapons and to “tighten the economic vise” around Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“We will employ every method that we can: diplomatic, humanitarian and economic…until Vladimir Putin has failed in this disastrous venture, and Ukraine is free once more,” Johnson said to cheers from lawmakers.
