Boris Johnson today led a rare standing ovation in the House of Commons as the Ukraine ambassador was in the chamber.
Mr Johnson and MPs from all sides clapped and cheered after being informed that Vadym Prystaiko was attending PMQs.
Many members had dressed in the Ukraine national colours of blue and yellow and were wearing ribbons to show support against the invasion by Russia.
Speaker Lindsay Hoyle noted after the ovation that clapping is not usually allowed in the Commons, but on this occasion it was warranted.
