Großbritannien konnte Pläne verrotten, Tausende von Truppen in die Ukraine zu schicken

Britain is likely to abandon plans to send thousands of troops to protect Ukraine because the risks are deemed “too high”, it can be revealed.

In an apparent softening of plans, Britain and Europe would no longer have a ground force guarding key cities, ports and nuclear power plants to secure the peace.

It is hoped that this change in military support for Ukraine could see Moscow move its red lines to achieve a peace deal.

Instead, the focus for a security commitment to Ukraine would be on the reconstitution and rearmament of Kyiv’s army, with protection from the air and sea.

British and French military trainers would be sent to western Ukraine. This would fulfill a commitment to put forces inside the country, however they would not be near the front line, guard key installations or be there to protect Ukrainian troops.

Aircraft would protect Ukraine’s air space and provide air cover to western troops on the ground. Turkey would play a maritime role under the most likely plans being considered.

A source involved in discussions about a “coalition of the willing” said of plans for a force of tens of thousands of ground troops: “The risks are too high and the forces inadequate for such a task.

British and French officials are understood to be trying to persuade President Trump to agree to a meeting with President Zelensky on Saturday, after the Pope’s funeral, in an attempt to smooth over tensions and make some headway on a deal.

No shit sherlock. UK is suffering from a heavy shortage of manpower in all branches of its military. They are in no condition to send anyone anywhere.
