Former British Minister: Ukraine Needs More Than a Peacekeeping Mission.


According to former British Defense Minister Grant Shapps, London must continue to support Ukraine on its path to NATO membership and participate in peacekeeping missions in the country. He believes that the involvement of British troops in peacekeeping operations would be a positive step, but it is not enough, as Ukraine is fighting for its survival and the values of freedom and sovereignty that underpin global security.
The involvement of British troops in post-war peacekeeping forces would undoubtedly be a positive step, but it barely scratches the surface of what Ukraine really needs. This is a country that is fighting not only for its survival but also for the values of freedom and sovereignty that are at the heart of global security.
Shapps also reminded that the UK has been at the forefront of supporting Ukraine against Putin's illegal invasion. He urged the country to lead this process and propose a bold path to NATO membership, as any other actions would betray the courage of Ukraine and the principles they stand for. The politician also criticized British Prime Minister Keir Starmer for his lack of interest in visiting Ukraine since taking office. Meanwhile, Sir Gavin Williamson, former UK Defense Secretary, supported the country's involvement in a potential initiative, as it is important for ensuring peace and security for Ukraine and its interests.
