4. SOUNDBITE (English) Boris Johnson, UK Prime Minister:
"I want to thank you and the people of Ukraine for the incredible honour that you have done me, which, as I say, I think is really a recognition of the efforts of the UK. I want to remind you, Volodymyr, that when you rang me at 4 o'clock in the morning on that grim day in February and you told me the news that we had been dreading, that Putin had been so insane as to invade a sovereign European country, I told you then that we were shoulder to shoulder with you and that is as true today as it was in that horrific moment."

STORYLINE:
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy presented outgoing UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson with Ukraine's Order of Liberty medal on Wednesday for supporting for Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression.
Zelenskyy said he was giving Johnson the award to reflect "what Boris did and is doing for our country and the whole of Europe."
The award ceremony came during what might be the UK Prime Miniter's final surprise visit to Ukraine in his current role as the country celebrated its 31st independence day.
"I want to thank you and the people of Ukraine for the incredible honour that you have done me," Johnson said. "I told you (when Russia invaded) that we were shoulder to shoulder with you and that is as true today as it was in that horrific moment."
