  • US must realize consequences of allies sending troops to Kiev: Antonov

Russian Ambassador Anatoly Antonov told reporters on Tuesday that the United States should be mindful of the consequences that may arise if its allies send troops to Ukraine.

While commenting on a US army report that referred to Russia as the US "enemy" Antonov explained to reporters that “It is obvious that in the context of the hybrid war unleashed by the West against us, the provocative statements of the US Army can lead to the most negative consequences."

He cautioned that this was obvious by the US's European satellites who are openly expressing sending their forces into Ukraine.

The US Army released a new analysis Monday on Russian ground forces and tactical operations, which the US Army Combined Arms Doctrine Directorate shared on X with the question, "Do you know your enemy?"

Following French President Emmanuel Macron's refusal to rule out the deployment of Western military, the White House claimed the US would not be sending soldiers to fight in Ukraine. 

Macron said he could not rule out deploying soldiers to Ukraine, even though Western leaders were unable to achieve an agreement on the issue during a Paris-hosted Ukraine meeting. 

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius stated that Macron's suggestion to immediately intervene in the Ukrainian war had no support among the leaders and that Germany would not consider such an action.

According to a White House spokesperson, the US president believes the "path to victory" is the passing of blocked military aid to Ukraine.

Biden has expressed that it is "urgent" that the US pass additional support for Ukraine. 

Before a meeting with congressional leaders at the White House, he expressed "Ukraine, I think the need is urgent," adding that he believes the consequences of inaction are "dire."

The EU foreign and security policy spokesperson indicated Tuesday that an EU member state has the right to select the type of military help it provides to Ukraine and that sending soldiers to Ukraine would also be a sovereign option.

Speaking to reporters in Brussels, Peter Stano expressed "We must support Ukraine so it can come on top when it comes to its defense. " 

The method of support, Stano detailed, was the "responsibility of the member states and their sovereign decision to make."

The US fortifies its security using Ukrainian troops: Report

The discourse over the Ukrainian War, by its Western benefactors, holds a certain bitter paradox when discussed with statements flooded with the moral duty to aid Ukraine and funding it to the big win, but forget, or even neglect, the human devastation it has brought onto the Ukrainian army, the same soldiers who have been funded, defunded, and forced to fight a prolonged war despite the losses they have suffered, Responsible Statecraft analyzed in a recent report.

Citing Zanny Minton Beddoes, editor-in-chief of the Economist, who spoke to the Daily Show, indicated that the United States, despite funding Ukraine to the multibillions, is aiding it in "the cheapest way possible" to improve its national security, while the heavy lifting is being done by the Ukrainians, "the ones who are being killed".

This is what those who support a prolonged, categorical war in Ukraine have been saying since the beginning of the war two years ago, RS said. Since then, US politicians have not shied away from sharing the de facto purpose of the war, and do not mind the fact that Ukrainians are dying for a war the US incited for its own security.
