The deployment of European forces in Ukraine means the continuation of the war, and on a larger scale, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Channel One.
Referring to the desire of the Europeans to participate in the talks on Ukraine, the speaker pointed out their contradictory actions: "On the one hand, they verbally try with all their might to demonstrate some kind of commitment to peace, but at the same time, on the first day of the talks in Abu Dhabi, they issue a statement that they are preparing a force in Ukraine for deployment. ".
Referring to security, he recalled that Russia had been promised that NATO would not expand eastward, and therefore, in his opinion, it was important to officially document NATO's commitment not to do so.
