Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has claimed that Vladimir Putin told him 'I don't want to hurt you, but with a missile, it would only take a minute', in a call ahead of the Russian invasion of Ukraine

Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has claimed that Vladimir Putin told him"I don't want to hurt you, but with a missile, it would only take a minute", in a call ahead of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The former PM, who left Downing Street in September after being forced from office, made the visit to Kyiv in early February to warn Russia that an invasion would prove disastrous. "He said, 'Boris, you say that Ukraine is not going to join Nato any time soon. [...] What is any time soon?' and I said 'Well it's not going to join Nato for the foreseeable future. You know that perfectively well,"' Mr Johnson said of the call with Mr Putin.

British Defence Secretary Ben Wallace also spoke to the Putin vs The West programme, set to air this evening, about his journey to Moscow in February as he sought to reach a breakthrough and see off war. "That would be 'Vran'e' in the Russian language. 'Vran'e' I think is sort of a demonstration of bullying or strength: I'm going to lie to you. You know I'm lying. I know you know I'm lying and I'm still going to lie to you. He knew I knew and I knew he knew. But I think it was about saying: I'm powerful.

Who would believe Boris

Suuuuuuure 🤣🤣😅

Putin always was a people pleaser

Dirty sex talk

Everyone knows Boris is a liar. Don't believe a word of it.

Michel Barnier was right Boris lies,lies,lies How many billion pounds was the NHS to receive post Brexit ? I rest my case

Looks like Putin is not all bad

Vladimer Putin claims Borris wanted UK to become a Russian state after Brexit, he didnt realise it already was !

😂 You wouldn't believe Johnson's watch if he told you the time

I dare you mate

Yeah right

Boris was a bad prime minister and a worse Actor, Bollywood wouldn't have him 🤣🤣 full of lies even to his own parliament, Mr.Pitypot himself 👏👏👍🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😅😆😆😆😆😆

A Walter mitty!

I think he meant a rocket up this fat boys ass

Who would believe a disgraceful Bull Shitter.

From a man who couldn't work out if he has a party or a business meeting...

Bound to be true, his relationship with the truth, if a Facebook profile would be, its complicated.

I mean to be honest if it was a missile just to take out Boris I think he’d be doing all of us and the UK a favour

Lol where's the proof to that?

Why does this seem like a line from a Bond villain? And about as believable.

Bullshite I order to get attention.

🙄

'Claimed'

rubbish.

Wasn't this guy a member of the Bulingdon club who would go out and damage property.....

You have to admire Putins honesty. If it was me I would just have gone ahead with it.

But did you die

This clown can’t tell a word of the truth

Did you do your due diligence and ask Putin for a reply before publishing?

Good honest character is boris 🤣

Correction… An habitual liar tells a story to make himself appear not in the pocket of the Russians

I know there has to be a few women out there would be happy to push the button.

😂😂😂😂😂

Nothing would surprise me when it comes to Putin. He's just 'that mad'. He's a man who loves nothing more, than killing a few thousand innocents before breakfast. The man scares even me to death.

That fella would say Mass...

U wudnt believe his radio….

Bullshit.

Not covering the nursing home scandal, the biggest scandal in the history of the state? Or just waiting for instruction from your political bosses? Like the Times and Independent?

Because this man has such an outstanding track record of telling the truth, doesn't he?

Boris , Boris, Boris, you're at the porkies again .

Lies. All journalists know he's a degenerate liar so why give the grifter the airtime

Fantasist

Poor Boris. He gets into a lot of scraped. Now a BBC bit of bother

Shame RTE can't report on ireland full but it will be remembered...instead of propaganda reports

It'd want to be a fair wallop of a missile to get tru the thick skin of johnson

Gaslighting pish

When did that big bawbag ever tell the truth?

Emphasis on 'claimed'. He's not what could be described as a credible source.

More 🇺🇦 distractions & again the news blackout on anything about the latest gov scandal. Is there a mandate RTE cant b critics of FFG? Shocking that ‘vulnerable people in the care of the State were wrongly stripped of their assets’

Fair play to Vlad. He doesn't mince his words.

Same old Bj! Everything is always about him. No thoughts for a anyone and everyone else who’d be in the same vicinity🤨 🎵🎵 ‘It’s all about me’ 🎵🎵

Putin made me drop my toast on the floor today! I'm so outraged at Russia right now! 😡

F**k Boris.

What a load of rubbish.

I thought I'd be like ' aww poor Boris ' 🤔 , go figure

So Putin isn’t mad after all he’s just like everyone else

And there’s a man down at the chip shop swears he’s Elvis. Sigh

Boris trying to stay relevant

Lol.. I knew he shat his pants. Lol

Pity Putin couldn’t aim that missile at Davos & get rid of all the WEF traitors.

RTE gives you The Liar Of The Western World

First it’s Johnson, so probably just a lie, secondly, if true, I wish Putin was a man of his word
