A protection force with soldiers from „several European countries“ could be stationed in Ukraine after a ceasefire. Emmanuel Macron said this on Thursday in Paris after the third meeting of the so-called „Coalition of the Willing“. The French President is talking about a „Force de réassurance,“ a force to provide security on the territory of Ukraine, but at a distance from the front line. According to Macron, the force is to be stationed in „strategic locations“ and is not intended to „replace“ the Ukrainian armed forces.
