Prime Minister Boris Johnson has called for a plan to end the UK's reliance on China for medical supplies. If necessary, the UK is prepared to 'repatriate' key industries. In light of the coronavirus crisis, British PM Boris Johnson has told civil servants to draw up plans for how the UK can end its reliance on China for vital medical supplies and other key imports. The initiative, codenamed 'Project Defend', includes plans to research the UK's biggest economic vulnerabilities to potentially hostile foreign governments. The project is part of a new, broad approach to national security spearheaded by Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab.
