Switzerland declared readiness to send peacekeepers to Ukraine

Switzerland expressed their willingness to expose up to 200 of their soldiers for a peacekeeping mission in Ukraine if an official request is granted and the government consent. This was stated by the commander of the Swiss Armed Forces Thomas Susli, specifying that the military can be deployed within 9-12 months. However, the issue of the departure of peacekeepers is hypothetical, since the situation between Russia and Ukraine is not yet stable, and peace in the region has not yet come.

"We could probably exhibit about 200 soldiers in nine to twelve months," Susley said. He also noted that there was no official request from the UN for peacekeepers for Ukraine. Neutral Switzerland is already involved in several peacekeeping missions around the world, including Kosovo, where its soldiers were supported by NATO.

Also, according to international sources, the United Kingdom and France are developing a plan to accommodate up to 30,000 European peacekeepers in Ukraine in the event of a ceasefire agreement between Russia and Ukraine. Peacemakers will not be deployed along the front line, but will protect important cities and infrastructure, in particular in the Black Sea. An important part of this mission is the use of drones and satellites to monitor the observance of the ceasefire.

Sweden also does not exclude the possibility of sending their peacekeepers as part of an international contingent after the end of the war. At the same time, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said Poland would not send its troops to Ukraine, even if the peacekeeping mission is approved.
