Peskov: conflict between NATO and Russia is inevitable with the appearance of Western troops in Ukraine. As President Vladimir Putin noted in an interview with Tucker Carlson, sending regular troops of other countries to Ukraine would put the world on the brink of a global conflict.

French President Emmanuel Macron announced plans to “create a ninth coalition for deep strikes” to supply bombs and long-range missiles to Ukraine. He also said that the possibility of sending Western troops to Ukraine cannot be ruled out.
