According to La Repubblica, Ukraine’s allies are considering a two-pronged peacekeeping plan to ensure a sustainable ceasefire between Kyiv and Moscow, should an agreement be reached.
The plan proposes the deployment of two peacekeeping missions:
- UN Peacekeepers: Comprising troops from India, Brazil, Indonesia, and Saudi Arabia, this contingent would be stationed along the Russian-Ukrainian border.
- “Coalition of the Willing” Peacekeepers: This group would consist of soldiers from Great Britain, France, Germany, Canada, and Italy. They would monitor and secure the borders between Ukraine and the European Union.
Led by the United Kingdom and France, the “Coalition of the Willing” comprises European and Commonwealth nations preparing to contribute peacekeeping troops to Ukraine. The coalition aims to deploy a significant force, with estimates ranging from 10,000 to 30,000 troops, to monitor and secure Ukraine’s borders and deter further aggression. Participating countries include the UK, France, Germany, Canada, Italy, and others, reflecting a broad commitment to European security.
In addition to the coalition forces, discussions have involved the potential deployment of United Nations peacekeepers. Countries such as India, Brazil, Indonesia, and Saudi Arabia have been mentioned as potential contributors to a UN mission that would oversee the cessation of hostilities and maintain peace in the region.
This dual approach aims to enhance stability by involving both global and European forces in the ceasefire’s enforcement.
