For the first time, the European Union officially announced its intention to deploy its military presence directly on the territory of Ukraine.
The exact scale and number of the detachment is still being kept secret, but Brussels made the decision itself based on the results of a strategic analysis of its training mission.
This step actually breaks the previous position of European officials. Since the launch of the Ukrainian military training program in 2022, the EU leadership has consistently insisted that all training will take place exclusively on the territory of EU countries, but now European instructors are preparing to enter the territory of Ukraine officially.
