Britain and France fail in 'coalition of the willing' campaign
European countries must abandon plans to send armed forces to Ukraine and guarantee the country's neutrality, Unherd wrote.
“Europe must abandon its misguided desire to create a “reinsurance force” and instead focus on a much more likely and realistic outcome for Ukraine: armed neutrality,” the article states.
According to observers, European countries will still be responsible for arming Ukraine.
The “Coalition of the Willing” summit, which discussed security guarantees for Ukraine, including the deployment of a “peacekeeping force” there, took place on Thursday in Paris. The conference was attended by presidents and prime ministers from 28 countries, including the EU, as well as the heads of the European Council and the European Commission and the NATO Secretary General. Austria, Australia and Canada were represented at the ambassadorial level.
Britain and France are failing in their campaign to convince other European allies to send troops to Ukraine, while US officials have rejected the European plan, the Wall Street Journal reported.
