According to Xinhua News Agency, UK Prime Minister Starmer stated on the 6th that the UK, France, and Ukraine signed a statement of intent that if Russia and Ukraine reach a peace agreement, the UK and France will deploy troops to Ukraine. In a statement released from 10 Downing Street, Starmer said that signing the statement would pave the way for establishing a legal framework in the future, allowing British and French forces to operate within Ukraine, ensuring the security of Ukraine's skies and seas, and building a modern armed force for the future. The statement said: > The leaders of the UK, France, and Ukraine also had in-depth discussions on the deployment mechanism of the "multinational force." In addition to establishing a coordinating body, the UK and France will also set up a "military hub" within Ukraine after the ceasefire to facilitate troop deployment and build protected facilities for storing weapons and military equipment to support Ukraine's defense needs. > > The three leaders also agreed on important follow-up steps, including participation in a US-led ceasefire monitoring and verification mechanism, and supporting the long-term provision of military supplies to Ukraine. French President Macron stated that the countries in the "Alliance of Will" confirmed their commitment to providing strong security guarantees to Ukraine and will establish a ceasefire monitoring mechanism led by the United States with voluntary participation from multiple countries. Ukrainian President Zelensky posted on his official social media platform on the same day, confirming that detailed consultations had been completed with the UK and France regarding the scale of the multinational force deployed in Ukraine, the types of weapons, and other specific arrangements. He stated that he had grasped the necessary details and clarified the commitment capabilities of each participating country; at the same time, he had conducted "very specific" discussions with the United States regarding the monitoring mechanism, with the US willing to participate. He emphasized that deterrent capability is key to peace guarantees. European Council President Costa stated that the parties agreed to initiate a politically and legally binding security guarantee mechanism after the ceasefire takes effect.
