During today's meeting in Paris, the leaders of European countries did not come to a common denominator regarding sending troops to Ukraine. It is reported by The Financial Times.

It is noted that at a meeting in Paris, European leaders discussed the issue of the introduction of troops on Ukraine amid peace talks between the United States and Russia. Opinions were divided.

Thus, French President Emmanuel Macron proposed the creation of a "support force" that would be deployed along the future ceasefire line, avoiding direct involvement on the front line.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said his country was "ready and willing" to send troops if necessary.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk rejected the possibility of sending troops, but promised to continue providing logistical and military assistance.

Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares also rejected the idea of sending troops, calling the world "far away."

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz considers the talk about peacekeepers premature, writes the newspaper "Country".

"Such meetings do not end with decisions, because this is not a body that can make any binding and final decisions," Tusk drew a line under gatherings in Paris at a press conference.

As reported by EADaily, the participants of the emergency summit of the EU countries in Paris, which is scheduled for February 17, are those who have been adding fuel to the fire of the war in Ukraine for three years, they will do everything possible to prevent a peaceful resolution of the conflict. This was stated by the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Economic Relations of Hungary Peter Szijjarto during his visit to Kazakhstan.
