Details
According to Tykhyi, the discussion on the possible dispatch of contingents is at the stage of working out the details of implementation, and not just assessing this possibility. This issue is being actively discussed at the level of chiefs of general staffs, in particular regarding the number, location and format of participation.
We see a really large number of countries that declare their willingness to participate in this. We already have a list of countries that express such willingness, even officially transmit signals about their willingness to participate in such a coalition, military contingents. I cannot name these specific countries yet, it is just too early now, but I think you will see this list of countries later
He also noted that further progress in the peace process is needed for the practical implementation of this step.
Recall
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy plans to visit France next week to discuss the issue of a military contingent for Ukraine.
According to Zelenskyy, there is currently a different vision regarding the military contingent for Ukraine, because there are countries that are ready to provide it in case of repeated aggression from the Russian Federation, there are those who agree to deploy it on the border, and there are those who want it only at sea or in central large cities.
