British troops in Ukraine will not be able to open fire / Photo by the Ministry of Defense of the United KingdomIf Russian troops conflict with peacekeeping forces that the United Kingdom is ready to send to Ukraine, it will be “extraordinary escalation”. This statement, in response to the question of Sky News journalist Trevoir Phillips, was made by the Minister of Health of the United Kingdom Ves Strating.
In particular, he was asked what restraint potential the British military may have in the event of their business trip to Ukraine as part of a peacekeeping mission, if they could not open fire in response in the event of an attack by Russian troops.
The Minister of the Direct Answer to this question could not be given, noting only that it would be a red line, “which has never been crossed before NATO founded.”
In response, the journalist said the gap that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is a person who, “apparently, does not know the borders in his actions.” Trevor asked the minister what then the meaning of all conversations about maintaining peace in Ukraine was when in fact the British troops would not be allowed to fight with the Russians.
Streeting noted that negotiations on peace in Ukraine are still underway, and if the agreement is still possible to conclude, then “work will be done to prepare a potential peacekeeping contingent.”
Peacekeepers in UkraineThe United Kingdom and France have previously taken the initiative called the “Coalition of those”. According to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Kir Starmer, if a peace agreement is reached, his country is ready to deploy peacekeeping forces in Ukraine to help protect the country “on earth, in the sea and in the sky.”
Ireland and Denmark were supported by the peacekeepers. Australia also announced that it was open to a peacekeeping mission in Ukraine.
For their part, Finland explained why peacekeepers would not be sent to Ukraine. According to Prime Minister Petter Orpo, it would be risky if Finnish soldiers were at risk of conflict with soldiers from a neighboring country.
At the same time, Moscow was strongly opposed to the placement of the European contingent of peacekeepers in Ukraine and threatened with “all available means”.
