Peskov: European troops in Ukraine would mean the war continues

Dmitry Peskov, press secretary to the President of Russia, stated that the presence of military formations from European countries on Ukrainian territory would have direct consequences for the duration of the conflict.

Assessment of possible consequences

According to Peskov, the appearance of a European contingent in Ukraine would signify the continuation of the war. He believes that the scale of hostilities would increase significantly.

The Kremlin emphasised that European countries demonstrate a desire for peace, yet simultaneously speak about the possible deployment of their troops in Ukraine.
