French President Emmanuel Macron said Monday that sending Western troops on the ground in Ukraine is not “ruled out” in the future after the issue was debated at a gathering if European leaders, as Russia’s full-scale invasion grinds into a third year.
The French leader said at the meeting of 20 European heads of state and other Western officials in Paris that “we will do everything needed so Russia cannot win the war.”
“There’s no consensus today to send in an official, endorsed manner troops on the ground. But in terms of dynamics, nothing can be ruled out,” Macron said in a news conference.
A ceasefire or a negotiated settlement. This continue-west war mongering is complete bs, they can’t even take Ukraine. How is Russia ever supposed to roll over Europe.
Plus taking over all of Ukraine is an unattainable war aim of Russia, their army and economy is not sufficient to subdue such a large population on such a large land mass. Especially considering how cohesive the Ukrainian population has been thus far. So if both sides can not realistically achieve their goals there is room for a positive sum negotiation.
The same way they are taking over Ukraine: invade, occupy and threaten mutual destruction unless appeasement demands are met. You r solution is not a compromise for Russia when it gets exactly what it wanted.
“War is upon you whether you like it or not”.
