President Donald Trump reaffirmed his push for a peacekeeping force in Ukraine, claiming it would be “satisfactory to everybody,” despite the Kremlin rejecting NATO troop deployment. Trump’s statement follows his claim that Russian President Vladimir Putin had “no problem” with Western troops in Ukraine, a claim Moscow denied. European leaders, including Macron and Starmer, support the idea, while Russia warns any unauthorized foreign troops will be considered combatants. The Trump administration insists NATO’s European members must take the lead in Ukraine’s security.

Russia has accused the European Union of attempting to obstruct a potential Ukraine war peace deal, allegedly influenced by President Donald Trump’s truce proposal. Russian officials claim the EU is working to prolong the conflict rather than seek a resolution. The allegations come amid growing global debate over diplomatic efforts to end the war.
