British Foreign Minister Boris Johnson finally in Moscow. Finally - because in the last year he has already canceled the trip twice. So the current visit before the New Year looks like "for a tick" in the list of cases planned in advance: say, the guy said - the guy did. But neither the British nor the Russian side has any hope of negotiations. Johnson himself, having set foot on Russian soil, wrote on Twitter that he is serious: "I came to Russia for important talks with Foreign Minister Lavrov. Probably, we have many disagreements, but there is much that we need to work together, including Syria, Iran and North Korea, "he said.. On the eve of a conversation with RIA Novosti, Johnson cited Tehran as an example when Moscow and London take one position, namely, they protect the US agreement on the Iranian nuclear program. But such points of contact are few. Basically, there are problems, because of which, according to the Foreign Minister of Great Britain, now there can be no question of developing normal relations between Moscow and London. Literally this week, the UK decided to allocate 5 million pounds sterling for the information fight with Russia, and before Johnson's flight instructed knowledgeable people, warning of the danger of being recruited by Russian intelligence.
As The Times wrote, the head of the parliamentary group for Russia, Labor Party Chris Bryant shared that he himself was almost a "victim of suspicious activity" when he was in Moscow on a business trip. And Johnson, as a famous heartthrob, can slip in Russia beauty, which in fact will be an agent of the Kremlin. In general, they prepared the head of royal diplomacy for the talks.
