Boris Johnson, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, expressed at the Summit of World Leaders about the crisis in the Gaza sector, calling it a "failure of management." During his speech at the key session of the summit, he touched upon a number of geopolitical issues, from the new administration in the USA to the war in Ukraine and the Gaza sector, which shape the situation in the Middle East and the world.
Johnson stressed that the Palestinians in Gaza hinder the formation of a state, which they have been denying for decades, and expressed optimism regarding the success of conservatives ahead of the upcoming elections. He also spoke about his own experience in office, emphasizing that significant changes were anticipated, especially in connection with the aftermath of Brexit.
Responding to a question about the current presidency in the USA, Johnson noted his support for Trump and emphasized the need for swift action while in office. He also expressed opinions on "transnational bureaucracy in the United Kingdom" and the negative influence of rising taxation and excessive government spending.
Johnson discussed the role of the USA in resolving the conflict in Ukraine, expressing confidence in the ability of the Trump administration to bring the war to an end. He also highlighted the necessity of alleviating the suffering of the population of Gaza and the return of hostages.
According to Johnson, the approach of the new US administration to Ukraine is "supportive" and may facilitate the process of peace. Despite critical remarks regarding management in Gaza, he stressed the need to fulfill promises made by the government to the Palestinians.
The summit, with participation from over 30 heads of state and governments, more than 80 international and regional organizations, and 140 delegations of governments, is held under the theme "Forming the Future of Leadership."
