Boris Johnson claims Putin in ‘total panic’ about prospect of pro democracy Moscow uprising

Vladimir Putin is in "a total panic" about a revolution in Moscow, which is why he is trying "so brutally to snuff out the flame of freedom in Ukraine", Boris Johnson says.

Condemning the "vicious and a barbarian attack on innocent civilians", the prime minister drew a direct comparison with the actions of the Nazis under Adolf Hitler in the 1940s.

He also warned the Russian president would not stop at Ukraine and a Kremlin victory would usher in the "beginning of a new age of intimidation across the whole of eastern Europe" and give "the green light for autocrats everywhere".
