German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul has stated that Germany will not deploy troops to Ukraine as part of a peacekeeping mission if the war ends, APA reports, citing Ukrainska Pravda.
Wadephul said that Germany should play an "important role" in any peacekeeping mission. He noted that Ukraine needs security guarantees but ruled out deploying German forces to Ukraine.
"The Bundeswehr has already stationed a brigade in Lithuania. Deploying additional German soldiers in Ukraine would likely be too much of a burden for us," Wadephul said.
