International Support
Emmanuel Macron announced that a British-French military delegation would be sent to Ukraine to assess Kyiv’s needs and determine how to support its army. He also indicated that troops would be deployed as a “reassurance force” to uphold any full ceasefire agreed upon with Russia.
Chiefs of staff from both countries have been tasked with assembling a team to meet with Ukrainian counterparts.
While the cease-fire agreements brokered by the United States represent a potential step towards ending the conflict, significant challenges remain.
Allegations of violations, disputes over implementation, and ongoing hostilities underscore how precarious the situation remains. Continued international engagement and pressure appear crucial to achieving a lasting peace between Ukraine and Russia.
