EU considering sending tens of thousands of troops to Ukraine to monitor the ceasefire - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
Briefly

The EU is preparing to deploy between 25,000 and 30,000 troops to Ukraine to oversee a potential ceasefire, assuming an agreement is reached with Russia. The U.S. has opted out of sending troops, leaving Europe at the forefront of this initiative. While the British Prime Minister is open to sending troops, concerns about military readiness and the need for increased defense spending are raised. Leaders including Lavrov emphasize there will be no concessions regarding Ukrainian territories, highlighting ongoing tensions and challenges in regional security.
"But any role in helping to guarantee Ukraine's security is helping to guarantee the security of our continent, and the security of this country."
"We just haven't got that number available. Our military is so run down at the present moment, numerically and as far as capability."
Lavrov warns there will be 'no thought' of territorial concessions of four Ukrainian illegally annexed territories by Putin.
