UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss has promised to follow Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s footsteps and become Ukraine’s “greatest friend” if she succeeds in her bid to become Conservative Party leader and prime minister.
Truss, who is one of the last two contenders in the race to replace Johnson as prime minister, vowed to double down on support for Ukraine and to make President Volodymyr Zelenskyy the first foreign leader she will call if she becomes the occupant of Number 10 Downing Street.
