French President Emmanuel Macron has told partners that he has no intention of turning to NATO if he sends his troops to Ukraine and the Russian army strikes them. About it writes The Wall Street Journal with reference to unnamed officials.
The author of the article noted that the prospect of Western troops in Ukraine raised the thorny question of how allies should respond if any service members were killed in fighting with the Russian Armed Forces.
However, Macron told US officials that their intervention would not be required in such a scenario.
Earlier, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said that sending troops to Ukraine would bring a direct conflict with Russia closer.
