Europe plans to send up to 30 thousand troops to Ukraine

Europe is preparing to send troops to Ukraine who will be ready to show force in case of a Russian attack. The French may provide the largest number of troops. This was reported by the Washington Post citing sources in Europe.

European troops will not be positioned on the front lines in Ukraine, but will be able to provide support outside its borders if necessary.

“France is ready to provide the largest number of troops - about 10 thousand. Other European allies have limited capabilities of their armies,” officials claim.

While the US has refused to send its troops to Ukraine, they do not rule out supporting European forces. The US has sent Europe a list of questions regarding possible support.

In Europe, it is believed that the US may help with intelligence as well as provide air cover or air defense for European forces.

President Volodymyr Zelensky earlier stated that Ukraine continues to form a contingent of foreign military personnel on its territory.

After the ceasefire in peace agreements, the involvement of not only European troops but also peacekeepers from other countries, including China and Brazil, is planned. The US proposed creating a peacekeeping mission with the participation of non-European countries that could be placed along the future ceasefire line as a buffer zone.

Ukraine also refuses to participate in negotiations in Saudi Arabia and does not recognize any agreements that were made without its participation.
