French President Emmanuel Macron's recent suggestion of potentially deploying military forces to Ukraine has drawn sharp criticism from the Kremlin, with Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov labeling the idea as "dangerous".

"The statement is very important. It is very important and very dangerous," Peskov said, adding that Moscow is closely monitoring France's position on this matter.

He further pointed out to the fact that this is not the first time France has made such a proposal.

UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron echoed similar concerns, rejecting the idea of NATO soldiers entering Ukraine.

"I wouldn't have NATO soldiers in the country [Ukraine], because I think that could be a dangerous escalation," Cameron told Sky News, adding that he does not believe it appropriate to have "NATO soldiers killing Russian soldiers"

These statements come after Macron told The Economist on Thursday that he does not rule out the possibility of deploying troops to Ukraine if Kiev were to request it.

He further said that many European nations have grasped and endorsed France's stance on potential troop deployment to Ukraine.

In February, Macron issued the same statements but clarified that the proposal was being made amid a decline in US support for Ukraine. 

"Should we entrust our future to the American electorate? My answer is no. Let's not wait for the outcome," he said in February.

The US recently approved an aid package for Kiev estimated to amount $61 billion.

But many suspect it to be the last, including Lithuanian Prime Minister Ingrida Simonyte, who said in late April, "We have to start thinking about what should happen if this is the last aid package."
