Downing -Rate stated that on Monday it is expected that “more than 30 countries” would join the coalition to help ensure solid peace in Ukraine, although the UK officials acknowledged that many would not be ready to put the boots on the ground.

Britain, France and Australia have indicated that they were ready to send troops to help carry the ceasefire regime in Ukraine, but everyone warns that any peace can only be guaranteed if the US provided a military “back”.

Denmark and Sweden also said they would be ready to bring forces into some form in any agreed peacekeeping operation in Ukraineincluding the potential deployment of troops.

British Foreign Minister David Lami insisted on Monday that when Russia rejects the ceasefire, the G7 “There are more maps we can play” to put pressure on President Vladimir Putin to stop the conflict.

Last week, the G7 Foreign Ministers’ meeting “helped us prepare the tools to force Russia to agree seriously,” the Lami House said, signaling that the next steps were more sanctions and the capture of frozen Russian financial assets.

“We can go on to focus on their energy and protection sectors, even more to squeeze their oil revenue and use frozen Russian assets,” Lami said.

He stressed that this last option should be a “multilateral endeavor” and highlighted Belgium and Germany.

On Monday, Lami also announced that he had a private meeting with the US Vice President JD Vance in Washington over the weekend.

Lami claimed that the US allies’ temporary suspension of the European Allies, which divides intelligence and military assistance with Kiev earlier this month, did not have a “material effect” on Ukraine’s ability to fight Russia.

Military planners from the countries that join that British Prime Minister Sir Kire Starmer called “a coalition for peace” for peace in Ukraine, in London on Thursday to discuss the operational details.

Most of these countries are European countries, but they also include Australia, Canada and New Zealand. Starmer said Japan offered “support”.

British officials said up to 30,000 troops could be multinational, but military officials acknowledged that “lasting” peace could only be provided if it was supported by the US and other support.

Starmer’s press secretary said on Monday that countries could contribute largely, including the provision of fast aircraft, engineering and logistics support and backfilling forces engaged in other theaters.

“It is not just about the troops,” said the press -secretary, but added: “With a large number of countries there will be a considerable force.”

A group of EU countries, including Ireland, Luxembourg and Belgium, did not rule out peacekeeping forces, depending on the rules of interaction, agreed and its legal basis.

Countries bordering on Russia, such as Finland and Poland, are active in discussions about peacekeeping presence without doing any forces.

These countries claim that their militants must remain to protect their countries, if Russia uses ceasefire to refurbish troops in such a way that may threaten them.

Downing -Rate said: “The Prime Minister said that it should be in the context of a safe and lasting peace to deploy the coalition of the willing and British troops when we support the need. These discussions are ongoing.”

The fact that US President Donald Trump has refused to offer us military air cover or other support has raised serious doubts about the proposed peacekeeping mission.

“Nobody wants to see a small number of European troops, without US support, on the shooting line in Ukraine,” one EU diplomat said. “It will have a huge burden on NATO unity if something happened.”
