While Russia will not stop destabilizing the Donbass and the issue of Crimea, occupied by Russia, will not be resolved, there will not be a reset. This opinion was expressed by the head of the British foreign policy department on Wednesday, December 20, in an interview with the Polish PAP agency on the eve of his visit to Russia.

According to him, Britain remembers the tragic story with Hillary Clinton and her button for resetting relations with Russia. I do not believe that this is possible at this stage. One can not continue the relationship, pretending that nothing has happened, "Johnson said, adding that Britain had never escaped the imposition of sanctions against the Kremlin.

At the same time, the minister assured that London will remain "firm in defense of the fundamental principles" in the Ukrainian question.
