Kremlin Says Russia Has Conveyed Warning Over Potential Western Troop Deployment to Ukraine
Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said President Vladimir Putin's statement that European troops in Ukraine would mean war with Russia reflects Moscow's official position, according to TASS.
Russian President Vladimir Putin's statement that the deployment of European troops to Ukraine would amount to war with Russia reflects Moscow's official position, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, according to Russian state news agency TASS.
Peskov said Russia has communicated this stance to countries around the world, TASS reported, though the news agency did not provide further detail on the specific channels or countries involved in these communications.
The remarks come amid ongoing discussions among some Western nations about the possibility of deploying troops to Ukraine in connection with the conflict, a prospect that has been a recurring point of tension between Moscow and Western governments.
TASS did not report additional comments from Peskov elaborating on potential Russian responses beyond reiterating Putin's characterization of such a deployment as tantamount to war.
The report did not include reaction from Ukrainian officials, European governments, or independent confirmation of the claims made by the Kremlin spokesman.
