US President Donald Trump supported the idea of location of European armed forces in Ukraine for a peacekeeping mission. He noted that if European countries want to do it, it is "wonderful" and it has no objection against such an initiative. Trump stressed that in the case of a peace agreement, US troops will not be sent to Ukraine because of distance, but it supports the placement of European troops.
This statement was made by the American leader when communicating with journalists in Mar-A-Swan, noting that it would be good for the United States if European countries decide to participate in a peacekeeping mission in Ukraine.
This statement of Trump coincides with the reports that the European Union is considering allocating a new military assistance package to Ukraine for at least six billion euros, which should strengthen the country's strategic position before future negotiations with Russia.
