World leaders are discussing the possibility of creating two separate peacekeeping missions for Ukraine: one under the auspices of the UN, the second with military contingents from Western countries, the Italian newspaper La Repubblica reports, citing sources.
According to preliminary plans, the first mission under the auspices of the UN could consist of military contingents from Asian and South American countries, including India, Brazil, Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. It is assumed that these forces will monitor the line of contact between Ukrainian and Russian troops. However, Indonesia has already denied that it has received a request to deploy its peacekeepers.
The second contingent will consist of soldiers from Western countries, who will be deployed on Ukraine's border with the European Union. Their role will likely be to strengthen security and monitor the situation in the west of the country.
According to sources, the United States is ready to provide comprehensive support for the implementation of this plan, including the supply of modern equipment, satellite monitoring, radar systems, and other logistical assistance.
This project has caused mixed reactions. On the one hand, the involvement of international peacekeeping forces could reduce the risks of further escalation. On the other hand, questions arise about the real effectiveness of such missions and their interaction with the Ukrainian military.
