Most EU countries are against sending peacekeepers to Ukraine without US involvement.

The EU is evaluating military engagement and civilian missions in Ukraine that may be undertaken to prevent future Russian attack following the conclusion of a peace agreement. The bloc is exploring the use of common security and defense policy tools, including patrols, missions to enhance national security, and the deployment of military forces under the European flag. Britain and France advocate forming a multinational “coalition of the willing” to assist Ukraine.

However, Ukraine’s future security framework largely hinges on the US. Most European nations are reluctant to join the future coalition unless Washington is involved at some level, whether through troops on the ground, planes in the air, or intelligence support. This is considered essential for the model to be dependable and serve as a genuine deterrent against Russian aggression.

The Canadian Ministry of Defense is ready to send peacekeepers to Ukraine following a ceasefire but stresses the need for security guarantees for Kyiv.

The Turkish Defense Ministry has also remarked that they may deploy troops to Ukraine to uphold peace.
