Boris Johnson asked for vodka himself during a reception in Moscow and "kept asking for another glass", the Russian Foreign Ministry claimed.
"He could choose the wine that was placed in front of him. But he chose to drink whatever he wanted. I remember that lunch. Johnson kept asking for more vodka. Then came Liz Truss. Even the men were surprised. The atmosphere of an English pub, brought by a British woman, simply did not fit within the walls of the Morozov mansion," said Maria Zakharova.
