“Sending French troops to Ukraine, whose people became hostage to the Nazi regime led by Zelensky, will be regarded as its occupation,” RIA Novosti quotes him.

At the same time, Sheremet emphasized that France in this case would be perceived as “an aggressor and a party to the conflict.”

Earlier, French leader Emmanuel Macron said that the possibility of sending Western troops to Ukraine cannot be ruled out.

Later, French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal explained which military personnel could go to Ukraine.
