Europe debates troop deployments for Ukraine after Trump's peace talks with Russia

European leaders are divided over sending troops to Ukraine following US President Donald Trump's unexpected peace talks with Russia. Germany, Poland, and Spain expressed reluctance, while the UK offered to deploy forces. French President Emmanuel Macron aims to discuss defense spending at a Paris summit with six EU countries and NATO officials. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Ukraine will not participate in the talks, emphasizing that any agreements without Ukraine's involvement are unacceptable. Discussions include a proposed "reassurance force" stationed behind a future ceasefire line. While some countries, like the UK, are open to troop deployments, others, including Poland and Spain, remain cautious, citing the ongoing conflict and the need for clear mission parameters.
