Johnson summarized [[the West]]'s relationship with [[Russia]] as such:

{{quotebox-float|[[Western alliance|Western leaders]] locked themselves into a narrative. And the narrative is basically, "here's poor [[Ukraine]], just minding its own business when this [[rape|rapist]] thug that's [[Russia]] came along and decided to invade it. And they invaded in 2014. And the heroic Ukrainian people have been fighting back. And that's who we're fighting with". That has no relationship to [[reality]], at all. That is that's just complete manufactured [[crap]]. And it is [[the West]] that has been constantly meddling in [[Russia]]'s internal affairs. It's been the West that has put together an organized [[intelligence agency|intelligence effort]] to try to [[subvert]] and destroy Russia. But the way we sell that in the [[[United States]] is, we flip it and maintain that that's exactly what Russia's doing to us. "Russia's trying to destroy us". And [[truth]] be told, if we had our hands in our pockets and were minding our own business, we wouldn't have a problem with Russia. But that's not the case.

The [[United States]], not [[Russia]], has launched [[war]] after war after war in the aftermath of that [[Second World War]], which is supposed to put an end to this kind of madness. And whenever Russia gets punched in the face, and then decides to defend itself, then [[the West]] hollers, "Ah, see, it's an aggressor."
