#32. " BoJo told him no, that neither the UK or the US would allow it."

You are going to claim it, you get to back it up. Sources, please? Other than taking your own hyperbole seriously into what others have reported.

By the way, Johnson visit Ukraine on April 10, not last week. That was after talks in March between Ukraine and Russia broke down. Johnson encouraged Zelensky to keep fighting because negotiating with Putin was pointless. The U.S. and U.K. did not tell Zelensky not to negotiate and did not stop Ukraine from trying to reach a settlement.

There's a number of sources, this is just n of them. Possibility of talks between Zelenskyy and Putin came to a halt after Johnsons visit - UP "The Russian side…was actually ready for the Zelenskyy-Putin meeting. But two things happened, after which a member of the Ukrainian delegation, Mykhailo Podoliak, had to openly admit that it was "not the time" for the meeting of the presidents. The first thing was the revelation of the atrocities, rapes, murders, massacres, looting, indiscriminate bombings and hundreds and thousands of other war crimes committed by Russian troops in the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories… The second "obstacle" to agreements with the Russians arrived in Kyiv on 9 April." Details: According Ukrainska Pravda sources close to Zelenskyy, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Boris Johnson, who appeared in the capital almost without warning, brought two simple messages. The first is that Putin is a war criminal, he should be pressured, not negotiated with. And the second is that even if Ukraine is ready to sign some agreements on guarantees with Putin, they are not. Johnson's position was that the collective West, which back in February had suggested Zelenskyy should surrender and flee, now felt that Putin was not really as powerful as they had previously imagined, and that here was a chance to "press him." Three days after Johnson left for Britain, Putin went public and said talks with Ukraine "had turned into a dead end". https://news.yahoo.com/possibility-talks-between-zelenskyy-putin-103227773.html
