Boris Johnson has warned Vladimir Putin that he will make a “tragic miscalculation” if he invades Ukraine, in a phone call delayed since Monday and preceded by Russian insults.

The Kremlin did not say how Russia will respond to what it described as Nato’s unreadiness to answer what it sees as justified Russian concerns.
