Germany Considers Ukraine Peacekeeping Troops, But Conditions Remain Uncertain
During a NATO meeting in Brussels, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock proposed the potential deployment of German troops to a post-ceasefire peacekeeping mission in Ukraine. This conditional commitment, contingent upon a genuine ceasefire with Russia, reflects discussions among EU leaders regarding a broader European contribution to Ukrainian stability. Baerbock’s statement follows recent reports suggesting renewed Western consideration of military involvement in Ukraine. Her proposal includes support for various peace-building initiatives, including security guarantees and increased military aid. The NATO meeting focused heavily on continued support for Ukraine and regional security.
