European plan for sending troops to Ukraine
President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen announced that Europe has a clear plan for sending military forces to Ukraine. She stated this in a statement provided to the information agency FREEдом.
Von der Leyen emphasized that EU countries are working on possible plans to deploy their military in Ukraine to ensure security after the war. She stressed that each country will make its own decision regarding the sending of troops, with the support of the USA.
Among the countries that help Ukraine with weapons, she highlighted Bulgaria, which, according to her, has provided a third of all the weapons used by Ukraine.
“You produce large volumes of ammunition and explosives that support Ukraine in its fight for freedom. Since the beginning of the war, a third of the weapons used by Ukraine come from Bulgaria. Putin has not changed and will not change. As we strengthen Ukraine's defense capabilities, we must also take greater responsibility for our own defense. To enhance our readiness, we must actively move forward at the European level, primarily in financial support,” noted the President of the European Commission.
Security guarantees for Ukraine
Earlier, political science doctor Igor Petrenko emphasized that security guarantees for Ukraine must be clear and legally binding. It is important to consider all aspects to avoid ambiguity or gaps in the legal framework. Ukraine needs security guarantees close to NATO membership, however, just Article Five of the Alliance is not enough.
The European plan and actions of EU member states demonstrate a commitment to supporting Ukraine during the war. This approach could become an important step in strengthening the country's defense capabilities and ensuring stability in the region. Increased military support from Europe could significantly impact the current situation and the strategies employed in the fight for Ukraine's security and independence.
