The Kremlin on Thursday said that any plan to send European troops to Ukraine as part of a potential peacekeeping mission would be unacceptable for Russia.

The Russian government said it was monitoring such proposals with concern.

Recall that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has expressed readiness and willingness to put UK troops on the ground in Ukraine, with US backing, as a security guarantee in the event of some sort of a ceasefire deal between Moscow and Kyiv

Starmer is said to be considering to present a plan to US President Donald Trump to send at least 30,000 European servicemen to Ukraine in exchange for American protection of the troopsm

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the reported proposal was unacceptable because it would involve forces from a NATO member state and therefore have ramifications for Russia’s own security.

“This causes concern for us, because we’re talking about sending military contingents – about the possible, eventual sending of military contingents from NATO countries to Ukraine,” Peskov said.
