Boris Johnson doesn't support Putin's assassination but to be held accountable for war crimes

The We For News reported, a spokesperson for Boris Johnson said on Friday that Britain’s prime minister does not support the idea of trying to kill Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The spokesperson firmly rejected the idea when was asked by reporters whether he agrees with US Senator Lindsey Graham, who called for “somebody in Russia” to assassinate the country’s leader.
The spokesperson stated: “No. We stand with the Ukrainian people in demanding the immediate end to the Russian invasion.” He added that “We have said before that Putin must be held to account before an international court for the horrific acts he has committed.”
The We For News said that the bizarre call was issued by the top senator on Wednesday, with Graham invoking the assassination of Roman dictator Julius Caesar and the botched plot to kill Nazi German leader Adolf Hitler as examples of what should be done in his opinion.

“Is there a Brutus in Russia? Is there a more successful Colonel Stauffenberg in the Russian military?” Graham asked. “The only way this ends is for somebody in Russia to take this guy out. You would be doing your country – and the world – a great service.”
with Russia’s Embassy in the US strongly condemning such statements, as well as demanding Washington to hold the official accountable for his remarks.

Russia’s Ambassador in the US Anatoly Antonov said: “The degree of Russophobia and hatred towards Russia is going through the roof in the United States. It is unbelievable that a senator from a country that preaches its moral values as a ‘guiding light’ for all of mankind could allow himself call for terrorism as a means to achieve Washington’s goals on the international stage."
