The head of the Belgian Ministry of Defense, Theo Francken, has announced his readiness to send troops to Ukraine.

This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to ZN.ua.

"We are ready, together with the United Kingdom and France, to launch an operation on Ukrainian soil as part of the 'coalition of the willing', immediately after the ceasefire is reached.
