Germany named the conditions under which it is ready to send peacekeepers to Ukraine

Germany is likely to play a role in securing a future ceasefire agreement between Russia and Ukraine. But at the moment it is not known what exactly the peacekeeping forces might look like.

This was stated by German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, writes Reuters.

Pistorius supported European politicians, saying that it is too early to decide on the presence of troops in Ukraine, since there are no negotiations or a ceasefire.

"If there is a ceasefire, then of course the Western community, NATO partners, potentially the UN and the European Union will have to discuss how such peace, such a ceasefire can be ensured. And it is obvious that Germany, as the largest economy in Europe, will play an important role in this", - he said.

The minister noted that it is necessary for both Ukraine and Russia to approve the mandate for peacekeepers, including German peacekeepers.

“You can tell from my answer that there are a lot more questions than answers right now. And that's why I can't give you a comprehensive answer." - stressed the official.
