Michael Gove said he was never told that he or Boris Johnson should not meet Evening Standard owner Evgeny Lebedev after reports that MI6 has had concerns about the Russian oligarch since 2013
Mr Gove said the security services had never told him he should not meet Lord Lebedev, who was made a peer in November 2020. Mr Johnson was reportedly warned against nominating him by MI6."At no point did anyone ever say to me that it would be inappropriate to meet him and talk to him."Military base near Poland hit by Russian strike
