International Support for Ukraine
Michal did not say how many troops this could entail.
NATO allies and Ukraine are working together to make sure security guarantees for Ukraine are at such a robust level that Russia will never try to attack again, NATO chief Mark Rutte said on Friday, adding that Europe and the United States would be involved in providing them.
French President Emmanuel Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer have both spoken in favour of troop deployments in a post-war settlement as part of Ukraine's coalition of the willing, with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz also signalling openness to German participation.
