More info<\/p>\n<p>Boris Johnson said the UK will work to ensure that &#8220;Putin should fail&#8221; if he carries out a full-scale invasion of Kiev, &#8220;which is what he seems to be proposing to do&#8221;. Mr Johnson told broadcasters that the UK will continue diplomatic efforts to avert violence. But he warned: &#8220;I just want everybody to be in no doubt that if Vladimir Putin continues down this track of violence, of aggression, of a full-scale invasion, of encircling Kiev itself which is what he seems to be proposing to do, capturing the Ukrainian capital, it is absolutely vital that that effort, that conquest of another European country, should not succeed and that Putin should fail.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added that the &#8220;first barrage of UK economic sanctions against Russia&#8221; will be revealed on Tuesday as he warned Vladimir Putin is bent on a &#8220;full-scale invasion of Ukraine&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>After hosting an emergency Cobra meeting, Mr Johnson said: &#8220;This is I should stress just the first barrage of UK economic sanctions against Russia because we expect I&#8217;m afraid that there is more Russian irrational behaviour to come.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m afraid all the evidence is that President Putin is indeed bent on a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the overrunning, the subjugation of an independent, sovereign European country and I think, let&#8217;s be absolutely clear, that will be absolutely catastrophic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mr Johnson is expected to present his plan for further sanctions on Russia to the House of Commons on Tuesday afternoon, less than a day after Russia deployed troops to the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>JUST IN: Russia-Ukraine LIVE: Putin warns of &#8216;bloodshed&#8217; as tanks seen rolling into Ukraine &#8211; VID<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/theme\/Mobile\/img\/page\/placeholder-horizontal.gif\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/139\/590x\/boris-johnson-news-russia-threat-putin-1569830.jpg?r=1645521306934\"><\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/theme\/Mobile\/img\/page\/placeholder-horizontal.gif\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/139\/590x\/secondary\/russia-ukraine-latest-donetsk-luhansk-3929814.jpg?r=1645521307005\"><\/p>\n<p>President Putin signed a decree on Monday recognising the independence of the two regions that officially remain part of Ukraine despite years of furious fighting.<\/p>\n<p>Putin ordered his defence ministry to despatch Russian forces to &#8220;perform peacekeeping functions&#8221; in eastern Ukraine&#8217;s two breakaway regions.<\/p>\n<p>He earlier signed decrees to recognise the two breakaway regions despite Western warnings that such a step would be illegal and effectively kill long-running peace talks.<\/p>\n<p>Kiev said two soldiers were killed and 12 wounded in shelling by pro-Russian separatists in the east in the past 24 hours as ceasefire violations increased.<\/p>\n<h3>Ukraine: Russian military vehicles filmed entering Donetsk<\/h3>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/theme\/Mobile\/img\/page\/placeholder-horizontal.gif\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/139\/590x\/secondary\/russia-ukraine-latest-crisis-photo-3929815.jpg?r=1645521307135\"><\/p>\n<p>Fears of war expanded past Western countries, with China admitting to being concerned about the spiraling situation, calling on all parties to exercise restraint.<\/p>\n<p>And Japan said it was ready to join international sanctions on Moscow in the event of a full-scale invasion.<\/p>\n<p>Russian UN ambassador Vassily Nebenzia warned Western powers to &#8220;think twice&#8221; and not worsen the situation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DON&#8217;T MISS:<\/strong><br \/><strong>EU commissioner seeks compensation after being forced to resign by VdL&nbsp;[REVEALED]<br \/>Britain to deploy tanks and troops to Estonia as Russia crisis deepens&nbsp;[INSIGHT]<br \/>Putin humiliated as China tells Moscow to drop Ukraine war plans&nbsp;[SPOTLIGHT]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/theme\/Mobile\/img\/page\/placeholder-horizontal.gif\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/139\/590x\/secondary\/russia-ukraine-news-graphic-3929827.jpg?r=1645521307205\"><\/p>\n<p>A Reuters witness saw tanks and other military hardware passing through Donetsk on Monday hours.
