Johnson to call Putin at last as Russia warns West not to drag Nato into war

A phone call between the two leaders had been planned for Monday but was postponed as the Prime Minister faced a stormy session with MPs over the “partygate” affair.

Russia has amassed more than 100,000 troops close to the border of Ukraine, fuelling fears the country is set to launch an invasion.

Mr Johnson was expected to urge Russia’s leader to step back after accusing him on a visit to Kiev yesterday of effectively “holding a gun… to the head of Ukraine”, and warning that an invasion would be a humanitarian and military “disaster”.
