JAKARTA - Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Thursday that the deployment of British troops in Ukraine would prolong the war, not end it.
France and Britain have expressed their intention to send troops to Ukraine after a ceasefire in the war with Russia was reached.
British Defense Secretary John Healey wrote in a newspaper article last weekend: "I want to be the defense minister who deploys British troops to Ukraine, because this will mean that this war will finally end."
"Contrary to Healey's misunderstanding, the deployment of British troops to Ukraine will not mean the end of the war, but rather an extension of the conflict and an increased risk of large-scale military confrontation involving more countries," Zakharova said, citing Al Arabiya from Reuters (26/2).
Zakharova also reiterated Russia's warning that it would consider foreign troops in Ukraine a legitimate target.
