Boris Johnson Criticizes Trump’s “Weak” Peace Plan for Ukraine

Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has strongly criticized President Trump’s proposed peace deal for Ukraine.

Johnson Speaks Out on X

In a statement on the platform X, Johnson accused Trump’s plan of rewarding Russian aggression with major concessions.

“Putin Is Being Rewarded for Violence”

Johnson highlighted that Putin would be allowed to keep Ukrainian territory seized through violence, violating international law.

Ukraine Would Get “Nothing” in Return

Johnson argued that after three years of resistance, Ukraine would receive almost nothing under Trump’s plan — only the chance to share resources with the U.S.

No Protection Against Future Invasions

Johnson warned that Trump’s plan lacks real measures to prevent future Russian aggression, calling it dangerously shortsighted.

Trump’s Proposal: Russia Stops Without Taking All of Ukraine

Trump said Russia was now willing to stop the war without seizing all Ukrainian land — presenting it as a concession for peace.

Johnson: “What Stops a Third Invasion?”

Boris Johnson questioned what in Trump’s deal would realistically prevent Putin from launching another attack in a few years.

Call for Strong Security Guarantees

Johnson insisted Ukraine needs a “long-term, credible, and properly funded security guarantee” from Western allies to ensure lasting peace.

Involving the UK, U.S., and NATO Allies

Johnson proposed that the UK, U.S., and all Western nations must back Ukraine with serious commitments if they want to stop future atrocities.

Fear of Appeasement

By offering concessions to Putin now, Johnson suggested the West risks emboldening Russian aggression rather than deterring it.

Ukraine’s Sacrifices Must Be Honored

Johnson concluded that Ukraine’s sacrifices in the name of global freedom and democracy must not be wasted on an inadequate peace deal.
