The goal of the &#8216;coalition of the willing&#8217; is to help achieve lasting peace and work with the US to guarantee Ukraine&#8217;s security in the long term. Today&#8217;s joint declaration clearly states this. In addition, together with President Zelenskyy and President Macron,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"quoteContent\" style=\"text-align:left\">Today we went even further. We signed a declaration of intent to deploy troops in Ukraine in the event of a peace agreement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; said Starmer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He emphasized that the agreement paves the way for the creation of a legal framework under which British, French and partner troops could operate on the territory of Ukraine, ensuring the security of Ukraine&#8217;s air and sea space.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Today we discussed these issues in detail. Therefore, I can say that after the ceasefire. Great Britain and France will create &#8220;military centers&#8221; throughout Ukraine and build secure facilities for storing weapons and military equipment to support Ukraine&#8217;s defense needs. We also agreed on further important steps. First, we will participate in the monitoring and verification of any ceasefire under US leadership. Second, we will support the long-term supply of weapons for Ukraine&#8217;s defense. And third, we will work on binding commitments to support Ukraine in the event of a future armed attack by Russia. This is about creating a practical framework on which peace will be based. But we will only be able to reach a peace agreement if Putin is willing to compromise,&#8221; Starmer added.<\/p>\n<p>Recall<\/p>\n<p>Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and French President Emmanuel Macron <a href=\"https:\/\/unn.ua\/news\/zelenskyi-starmer-ta-makron-pidysaly-deklartsyiu-pislia-zasidannia-koalitsii-okhochykh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">held<\/a> a brief signing ceremony for a declaration of intent regarding the future deployment of multinational forces in Ukraine after the &#8220;Coalition of the Willing&#8221; meeting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After signing a peace agreement, Great Britain and France plan to create military centers in Ukraine and deploy&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":678542,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5018,3,4],"tags":[748,393,4884,1144,712,16,15,1764],"class_list":{"0":"post-678541","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-britain","8":"category-uk","9":"category-united-kingdom","10":"tag-britain","11":"tag-england","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-northern-ireland","14":"tag-scotland","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom","17":"tag-wales"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115850359887101848","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/678541","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=678541"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/678541\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/678542"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=678541"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=678541"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=678541"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
