Recently, British Prime Minister Liz Thrus announced that she is resigning. She was in office for only 45 days.
There is no talk about her merits and shortcomings yet. The resignation of Truss indicates that the political crisis within the UK has intensified enormously. Military expert Oleg Zhdanov said this on his YouTube channel.
Soon we will hear the name of the new prime minister
The fact is that Zhdanov is convinced that now the election of a new candidate will proceed differently. Previously, it was necessary to wait 1.5 – 2 months, to hold debates, hearings, primaries, etc. Now the procedure is simplified – the election of a new prime minister in the Conservative Party will be held in a week.
The main contender is Boris Jones. Even before his resignation, he was compared with Winston Churchill, since he got the country in such a difficult period – both the internal political crisis, and the war in Ukraine, and the active participation of Great Britain in the confrontation with Russia. And here he will repeat another step of Churchill – returning to the post of prime minister, – Oleg Zhdanov noted.
Yes, Johnson is a leader who has a fairly serious lead. Briton of Indian origin Rishi Sunak, who competed with Liz Truss, came in second. Then Ukraine had a certain concern.
“He keeps pretty well afloat there. Although Sunak was a participant in the same party for which Boris Johnson was filmed. But for some reason this is somehow not particularly advertised anywhere,” Zhdanov emphasized.
In his opinion, in any case, the UK is a conservative country, so it is unlikely that it will start to turn very sharply and quickly in the other direction.
“I think that the ship of the British Empire will sail along the course that is determined for this country today and will continue to fulfill its tasks, including actively supporting the Ukrainians in the confrontation with Russia,” summed up military expert Oleg Zhdanov.

Lise Truss's resignation: in short
UK Prime Minister Liz Truss has decided to resign after five weeks in office, the shortest premiership in the modern history of the United Kingdom. During this time, she made a series of decisions that resulted in her completely losing her faction's support and popularity among the British. So many people were not surprised by Truss's decision.
Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba is convinced that the level of support for the UK will not change due to the resignation of the prime minister. He emphasized that this is an extremely dramatic story, because Liz Truss is a very strong and ambitious leader. “But we live in a world in which things have begun to happen that were simply not possible a year ago,” the Foreign Minister said.
