About two dozen countries may join coalition in support of Ukraine - Starmer

Starmer spoke about coalition in support of Ukraine

Within the framework of the coalition in support of Ukraine, peacekeeping troops may be sent to Ukrainian territories after the end of the war with Russia or provide other assistance to the country.

As Censor.NET reports with reference to the BBC, this was stated by the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Keir Starmer.

He noted that the project is led by the United Kingdom and France. Within the framework of this project, soldiers from a group of countries may be sent to Ukraine as peacekeepers. However, not every country in the coalition will be ready to send peacekeeping troops - some countries may provide other support.

The British Prime Minister said that it will be extremely important that in the event that "if there is an agreement - we protect it." He emphasized that this means making sure that Ukraine will be in the strongest position.

Starmer emphasizes that the defense plan should be developed "jointly with the United States" and that "it is this ability to work with the United States and our European partners that has maintained peace for 80 years."

It is not known which specific countries have expressed their support for such an initiative, but Starmer emphasized that "several countries want to play their part." He also emphasized that the project is at an early stage. According to him, Britain, France and other states want to prepare a plan on how to stop the fighting in Ukraine and will present it to the United States.

Recall that NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte held a conversation with the likely next Chancellor of Germany Friedrich Merz. Among the topics of conversation is further support for Ukraine.
