Some of the Ukrainian Armed Forces may be stationed in European countries. This could supposedly happen as part of a possible peace deal in Ukraine.
The Times reports this.
The author of the article, Mark Urban, writes that to achieve a peaceful solution, Putin wants Ukraine to maintain a small number of troops and its connection to NATO to be limited. Therefore, Urban maintains, the West is considering various proposals on how to implement this for the sake of ceasefire and peace. At the same time, they probably won’t do anything contrary to how Ukraine sees it.
One such idea is to “allow large numbers of Ukrainian troops to be based in NATO countries so that, strictly speaking, they are not part of their country’s deployed forces.”
Another version also involves the deployment of Western weapons in Ukraine in order to be able to quickly deploy forces in the event of a new war, that is, in the event that, after reaching peace agreements, Russia once again goes on the offensive in Ukraine.
Recall that Kursor wrote that Russia, as a country with significant nuclear potential, violates all international norms. And this puts Western countries in a dead end. After all, we still don’t know what to make of the Russian leaders, who, despite breaking all the rules, remain a serious global force.
Kursor also reported that after Donald Trump’s inauguration, Vladimir Putin, according to international relations expert Taras Semenyuk, is counting on changes in US policy that will reduce the military threat from Ukraine and reduce pressure on Russian infrastructure.
Previously, Kursor also reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his troops to expel the Ukrainian Armed Forces from the Kursk region by January 20, 2025. The inauguration of the US president-elect is scheduled for this day , Donald Trump. This was stated by the President of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky, during his speech at the III International Conference on Food Security “Grains of Ukraine”.
