The United States will not send its troops to Ukraine to conduct combat operations there. This was stated by White House National Security Adviser John Kirby.
What does the USA think about sending troops to Ukraine
Well, that's a sovereign decision that each NATO member would have to make for themselves. You heard how Secretary General Stoltenberg himself said that he has no plans or intentions, certainly under the auspices of NATO, to deploy troops on the ground, Kirby said.
He also added that President Biden clearly stated from the very beginning of this conflict that there would be no US troops on the territory of Ukraine which would carry out combat operations.
Kirby stated this in response to how the United States would react to the fact that the North Atlantic Alliance member states would send their troops to Ukraine.
What is known about the sending of Western troops to Ukraine
On February 26, a working meeting of about 20 European leaders took place in the Elysee Palace in Paris. The conference participants discussed ways of confronting Russia and possible ways of helping Ukraine in confronting the aggressor in the context of the aggravation of the situation at the front in recent weeks.
In particular, during the summit, French President Emmanuel Macron did not rule out that NATO would send troops to help Ukraine. The main problem, according to him, is that there is still no consensus on this issue.
Many of the people who say today, "Never and never," were the same people who two years ago said, "No tanks, no planes, no long-range missiles.
It should be noted that German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is currently against sending NATO or EU troops to Ukraine, and the Czech Republic and Poland are not considering such a possibility either.
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg was also categorical, stating that "there are no plans to deploy NATO combat troops on the territory of Ukraine," despite comprehensive assistance to Kyiv.
