Denmark has announced plans to send unarmed troops to Ukraine to learn about drone warfare through first-hand observation of the ongoing conflict. Major General Peter Boysen emphasized the training's purpose is educational, noting the soldiers will not engage in active combat. This response from Denmark follows heightened tensions, as Russian officials labeled the move a provocation, asserting that any training sites could be considered legitimate military targets. Training courses are set to begin potentially this summer.
Maj. Gen. Peter Boysen, Denmark's commander in chief, stated that troops are to learn drone warfare in Ukraine, but they "are not going there to actively participate in the war."
Russia's ambassador to Denmark, Vladimir Barbin, described the deployment as a provocation, claiming it would drag Denmark deeper into the conflict, referencing facilities that are "legitimate targets."
