The EU announced that it has trained 90,000 Ukrainian soldiers and 26 countries have pledged to provide security guarantees
After the Paris "Will Alliance" meeting, the European Commission announced that it has completed the training plan for approximately 90,000 Ukrainian soldiers. European Commission President von der Leyen stated that this military training mission will continue, while 26 countries have pledged to provide maritime, land, and air forces to provide Ukraine with "security guarantees."
[Background of the Meeting]
This Paris meeting was co-hosted by British Prime Minister Starmer and French President Macron. Von der Leyen emphasized in a statement: "Europe will continue to train Ukrainian soldiers, and nearly 90,000 have already completed their training." She also revealed that 26 allied countries have expressed willingness to deploy troops to maintain Ukraine's "security guarantee."
[Russian Position]
The Russian Foreign Ministry has repeatedly stated that any plans for NATO countries to station troops on Ukrainian territory are unacceptable to Moscow and could lead to a sharp escalation of the situation. Russia previously pointed out that such initiatives proposed by London and other European capitals are essentially inciting the continuation of military operations.
[Strategic Implications]
- Training Scale: The EU's training capacity has reached 90,000, demonstrating its commitment to continuously support Ukraine;
- Multi-Country Participation: The 26-country security commitment reflects the broad support from the Western camp for Ukraine;
- Geopolitical Risks: Russia has clearly drawn a red line, and Western military presence may trigger a new round of confrontation escalation.
