Nov 25, 2024, 11:26 AM

European countries have resumed discussions about the possible deployment of troops, private military companies, or private defense companies to Ukraine, according to a report by Le Monde. The renewed talks come in the wake of Donald Trump's recent election victory, which has raised concerns about a potential cessation of arms supplies from the United States to Ukraine. The discussions have intensified as the war in Ukraine enters a new phase of escalation. French President Emmanuel Macron first raised the topic in February, but it has gained renewed urgency following Trump's win.
