Polish Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk says his country would not send soldiers to Ukraine.
Tusk declared this as he went off for an emergency summit in Paris to discuss Europe’s involvement in any truce.
It should be noted that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer had already declared his readiness to deploy peacekeeping forces to Ukraine.
According to Tusk, Poland would continue to provide Ukraine with military and humanitarian assistance in line with its budgetary capacity.
“Polish troops will not be sent to Ukrainian territory. Tusk stated, “We will provide political and logistical support to the countries that may wish to provide such physical guarantees in the future.”
In a week that has left many nations worried that they cannot rely on Washington’s support, the Polish leader also issued a warning against casting doubt on Europe’s alliance with the United States, saying that now was not the time to consider creating a substitute for the NATO transatlantic military alliance and that nations providing security guarantees to Ukraine must be certain they could fulfill them.

Recall that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer had earlier said he was ready to put peacekeeping troops in Ukraine.
Tusk said Poland would support Ukraine as it has done so far in accordance with their financial capabilities, in terms of humanitarian and military aid.
“We do not plan to send Polish soldiers to the territory of Ukraine. We will give logistical and political support to the countries that will possibly want to provide such guarantees in the future, such physical guarantees,” Tusk said.
The Polish leader also cautioned against questioning Europe’s alliance with the United States, amid a week that has left many countries fearing they cannot count on support from Washington.
According to him, it was not the time to think about building an alternative to the NATO transatlantic military alliance and said countries offering security guarantees to Ukraine must be sure they could fulfil them.
