Germany is likely to reject Sir Keir Starmer’s plans to deploy a European peacekeeping force to Ukraine, throwing the proposals into disarray.

Germany is likely to reject Sir Keir Starmer's plan to send a European peacekeeping force into Ukraine, according to reports. The UK and France are set to propose deploying soldiers to Kyiv if there is a deal to end the war with Russia, but Germany and Poland are said to be against the move.

Germany has rejected Keir Starmer's peace plan for Britain to deploy troops to Ukraine to support any proposed peacekeeping deal. The Prime Minister had declared that the UK should take centre stage in post-war security guarantees for Ukraine - which would involve putting British troops "in harm's way" to police a potential ceasefire.
