Former national security adviser Lord Sedwill warns deployment of UK troops in Ukraine could last for 'many years' UK and France have said they would be willing to send troops to work to uphold any ceasefire in Russia 's war with Ukraine .

They would form part of a "coalition of the willing" to help Kyiv which the UK said could involve around 20 other countries.

Sir Keir previously said that a plan for defence should be made "in conjunction with the United States ... it's that ability to work with the United States and our European partners that has kept the peace for 80 years now". Trump has so far avoided committing to such support, and has suggested that the presence of US workers in Ukraine as part of a potential minerals deal could act as a security guarantee..
