Boris Johnson Warns Russian Victory in Ukraine Would Be 'Catastrophic'

Jun 26, 2022 Allowing Russian President Vladimir Putin to succeed in his invasion of Ukraine would have “absolutely catastrophic” consequences for the world, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson warned in a CNN interview on Sunday.

Why ask BoJo if we are heading towards a global recession? He doesn't know the first thing about economics! At university, he studied the classics, not economics. Further, he wrote articles for newspapers; to my knowledge, he hasn't ever worked in industry or finance. What a bloody joke to ask him about what is going to happen to the world economy! By the way, if BoJo had known anything, even the slightest thing, about economics, he wouldn't have yanked the UK out of the greatest and biggest single market in the world: The Single Market. I'll give him one thing, though: He is right to say that it would be a catastrophe if Russia were victorious in this war. – © Mark Alexander
