The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, said that Great Britain positively assesses the possibility of stationing foreign troops in Ukraine. This initiative can become an important element of future security guarantees for the country.
The issue of the possible deployment of British troops will be discussed during the upcoming visit of the Prime Minister of Great Britain, Keir Starmer, to Ukraine. Zelensky noted that there are already "very serious decisions" between the countries, but the details will be announced later.
"The initiative to deploy a foreign contingent can become a serious component of future security guarantees for Ukraine. Although one contingent may not be enough, this is an important step in the direction of ensuring our security," the President of Ukraine emphasized.
The British side, according to Zelenskyi, "looks positively" at the possibility of the presence of its military in Ukraine. This is a signal of London's readiness to strengthen support for Ukraine in the fight against Russian aggression and to ensure its stability in the long term.
The president's statement was made after another meeting in the Rammstein format, which became a platform for discussing key issues of security and defense of Ukraine. Great Britain is one of Ukraine's leading partners, providing military, financial and diplomatic support in wartime conditions.
The placement of a foreign military contingent in Ukraine can become part of a wider system of security guarantees, which are being actively discussed with Kyiv's partners. In the context of the ongoing war with Russia, Ukraine seeks to obtain effective defense mechanisms that include military assistance, political support, and sanctions pressure on the aggressor.
