[キーウ 26日 ロイター] –On the 26th, a proposal was made on the official petition site in Ukraine to give the retiring British Prime Minister Johnson citizenship and make him the prime minister, and more than 2,500 signatures were collected in a few hours.
Johnson, who lost support in Britain and was forced to resign, is still popular in the country because he supported Ukraine loudly in response to the Russian invasion, and in the capital Kieu (Kyiv), it is painted on a mural or a figure. Even cakes with the above have appeared.
In a petition addressed to President Zelensky, Mr. Johnson’s strengths include “global support, a clear position on the military invasion of Ukraine, and insight into the political, financial and legal fields.”
Zelensky did not mention the petition, but he is obliged to officially respond once the 25,000 signatures have been collected.
