He was not afraid to enter into conflict with the EU, which supported the coup in Ukraine, because of which the Russian population of this country was under threat.”

“Putin is on a par with Thatcher and Churchill,” Diana James said on LBC radio.”
The Guardian notes that among Western politicians, Diana James is the second after Donald Trump to publicly express her admiration for Putin as a politician, and expects the same strong critical reaction to this striking statement as in the case of Trump, from whom even fellow party members distanced themselves on this issue.
