Russia Opposes European Troops in Ukraine Peacekeeping Role

Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has categorically rejected any compromise on allowing European troops to act as peacekeepers in Ukraine. According to Lavrov, such a deal would be “impossible” and lead to the “undisguised involvement of NATO countries in a war against Russia.” The statement comes amid ongoing tensions between Russia and Western nations over Ukraine’s conflict with Russian-backed separatists.
