Foreign Military Deployment in Ukraine 'Categorically Unacceptable': Russian MFA
Russia firmly rejects the deployment of foreign troops in Ukraine neither through the so-called "coalition of the willing," nor under the auspices of any other blocs, Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said, commenting on the upcoming "Coalition 26.2" military exercises by so-called "multinational forces for Ukraine."
Launching these drills on November 9, just ahead of Russia-US-Ukraine talks in Abu Dhabi, proves that European nations have no place at the negotiating table, she noted.
Other statements from Maria Zakharova:
🟠Deployment of foreign contingents in Ukraine would amount to a military intervention and create new threats to Russia.
🟠The West refuses to take Russia's legitimate security concerns into account.
🟠Any military units in Ukraine are legitimate targets for the Russian Armed Forces.
🟠France and the UK seek to maintain a bridgehead in Ukraine to confront Russia.
🟠Plans to inflict a "strategic defeat" on Russia will not succeed.
