Grant Healy, the British Secretary of Defense, stated at a conference at Mansion House in London that the United Kingdom is prepared to spend over 100 million pounds for a possible deployment of British troops in Ukraine. He emphasized that, while President Trump leads peace efforts in Europe, the United Kingdom will lead efforts to ensure long-term peace. The plan includes training military personnel to join a multinational force that will help secure Ukraine's borders after a potential ceasefire.
Healy mentioned that Vladimir Putin perceives the United Kingdom as his "number one enemy" due to the support given to Ukraine and warned of a "new era of threats," emphasizing that the risk of a broader conflict in Europe has not been this high since the end of World War II. Additionally, the Ukrainian Parliament ratified a 100-year partnership agreement with the United Kingdom, strengthening relations between the two countries.
