Healy stated, "Yes. The Prime Minister has always been clear that he's ready to put troops into Ukraine to help reinforce a ceasefire."
Healey confirmed that 50,000 troops will be formed to help defend Europe in a joint cooperation between France and Britain.
This summit is quite extraordinary, but it demonstrates the way that we set out this last year to reset relations with key European allies.
The port of Rotterdam has started to prepare for possible war, creating space for NATO ships carrying supplies of military cargo.
