The media reported on the disagreements of Western countries on the topic of sending troops to Ukraine

The so-called "coalition of the willing," consisting of Western countries, could not come to an agreement on sending troops to Ukraine after a possible settlement of the conflict. This was reported on March 16 by The Telegraph newspaper, citing anonymous sources.

"The Allied group has not yet reached a specific agreement on the deployment of any forces in Ukraine," the article says.

One of the European military leaders, on condition of anonymity, told the publication that it was necessary to discuss whether the coalition of volunteers was capable of providing troops at all. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said the kingdom was ready to play a "leading role" and deploy "troops on the ground and aircraft in the sky." The Royal Navy may also send ships to the Black Sea if Russia "agrees to a peaceful settlement."

"The peacekeeping forces could include fighter jets and reconnaissance aircraft patrolling the skies, as well as warships in the Black Sea," the newspaper writes.

Such a "coalition of willing" mission may require up to 30,000 troops.

According to the newspaper, Western countries, instead of deploying real peacekeeping forces, are considering strengthening the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).

"There is a common understanding that as soon as peace is achieved in Ukraine, the coalition countries will have to strengthen the Ukrainian armed forces in order to preserve this peace," said the military commander of one of the European countries.

The government and the opposition in the country quarreled over the "debt trap"

The European Union declares the need to take on a greater role in the Ukrainian settlement process. This issue became especially relevant for the EU after the scandal in the Oval Office, when on February 28, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky engaged in a public altercation with US Vice President Jay Dee Vance.

On March 15, the British authorities organized a virtual summit on the possible deployment of troops to Ukraine after the conclusion of peace. The video call was joined by the leaders of 27 countries, as well as the heads of the European Union and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. Among the participants of the summit were representatives of all major European countries, as well as the Prime Ministers of Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the President of Turkey.

The countries agreed to send their generals to a meeting on March 20 to discuss to what extent each member of the coalition will be able to participate militarily. The negotiations will focus on whether the coalition can raise enough resources.
