Boris Johnson – 2021 Comments on Support for India

The comments made by Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister, on 3 May 2021.

The terrible images we have seen in India in recent weeks are all the more powerful because of the close and enduring connection between the people of the UK and India.

I am deeply moved by the surge of support the British people have provided to the people of India and am pleased the UK Government has been able to play our part in providing life-saving assistance.

The UK will always be there for India in its time of need.
