On Monday, US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan stated that the United States has no plans to deploy troops to Ukraine.

"We have made our position clear, which is that we are not intending to send US troops to Ukraine," Sullivan told reporters during a briefing.

Sullivan recalled that President Joe Biden reaffirmed the US' position in his State of the Union address earlier this month. 

This follows French President Emmanuel Macron's recent suggestion of sending troops to Ukraine.

On February 26, during a meeting of Western leaders in Paris, Macron mentioned that France does not rule out sending troops to support Kiev in its counter-offensive.

While the proposal sparked debate among NATO members, no unanimous decision had been reached thus far.

Other Western countries, like Germany, rejected these suggestions, affirming that NATO had no intentions of deploying troops to Ukraine.

The Kremlin cautioned that the deployment of NATO troops to Ukraine would escalate tensions, leading to a direct confrontation between the alliance and Russia.

In response to Macron's comments, the Kremlin remarked that Russia must remain vigilant, as the current generation of European leaders lacks self-preservation instincts.

On March 10, Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski divulged that NATO forces are already operating in Ukraine.

On March 16, Russia's Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN Dmitry Polyansky said that the presence of foreign troops in Ukraine was an 'open secret' that was dubbed a fact before the Polish Foreign Minister made his revelation.

"It's an open secret that Western military personnel are present in Ukraine. We know not only through the Polish foreign minister but other sources," Polyansky told Sputnik. 

He also further supported his statement by referencing the leaked conversation between German military senior officers, saying it is a "much louder revelation" than what the Polish minister said. 

A recently leaked German recording indicated that British soldiers were in Kiev assisting Ukrainian troops by firing long-range Storm Shadow missiles.

The leak further detailed how British forces collaborated with Ukraine on deploying Storm Shadow missiles against targets up to 150 miles behind Russian lines.
