Prime Minister Boris Johnson visited Kyiv for the second time since the war began, telling President Volodymyr Zelenskiy the UK is offering a new military training program for as many as 10,000 soldiers every 120 days. It comes a day after the leaders of France, Germany and Italy went to the Ukrainian capital and as Ukraine took a major step toward eventual membership of the European Union, with the bloc’s executive body recommending the former Soviet republic be granted candidate status. President Vladimir Putin said Russia is weathering the unprecedented sanctions imposed by the US and its allies over his invasion of Ukraine, as he claimed Europe stood to lose $400 billion this year as a result of the measures. That’s even as Russia faces its worst economic contraction in years.
