NATO with Ukraine prepares for possibility of two-front war, says politician

He shared this opinion on the Espreso TV channel.

“The former British Empire has a long memory, and if they make a statement, they certainly follow through. If they say they will enter a country, that will happen. Global media is full of reports on how the British helped Ukraine from the very beginning, even against Washington’s position. They showed more courage. Their role in managing the aid system to Ukraine is natural. This is the first important element,” noted Czech.

The second element concerns forecasts and concerns about a possible U.S. withdrawal from NATO. According to the politician, it can now be said with almost 99% certainty that all such assumptions have been nullified.

“Recently, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, during a NATO defense ministers meeting, said that America is not planning to exit anywhere, including the Alliance. The existence of NATO is an element of the national interests and security of the United States,” Czech pointed out.

Thirdly — Belarusian-Russian exercises planned for the fall. Fears that Russia might provoke NATO and European Union countries are based on solid grounds. Therefore, the question of the contingent and the Europeans' readiness to support Ukraine’s stabilization and Ukrainian forces is based on these realities, said the Polish politician.

Moreover, U.S. and NATO strategists must also consider an additional element — what will happen if China decides to take Taiwan, which it considers part of unified China?

“In such a case, the Euro-Atlantic community will face the threat of a two-front war. So everything happening now is preparation for the possibility that the North Atlantic Alliance, together with Ukraine, as an inseparable part of the security structure, is preparing for the possibility of a war on two fronts,” said Czech.

Peacekeeping forces in Ukraine

At the end of January, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that securing Ukraine after the cessation of hostilities would require at least 200,000 peacekeepers. He later clarified that the peacekeeping force should include U.S. troops.

On February 11, The New York Times reported that Europe does not have 200,000 peacekeepers available to send to Ukraine — nearly three times the size of the entire British Army. On the same day, Zelenskyy said the mission would become viable if 100,000 to 150,000 European troops were deployed.

According to the AP, a group of European countries is confidentially developing a plan to send troops to Ukraine.

U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed support for the deployment of European peacekeeping forces in Ukraine but stated that the United States would not participate.

According to French Foreign Ministry spokesperson Christophe Lémonde, European countries are currently discussing only the possibility of sending troops to Ukraine — not the number involved.

Meanwhile, German defense contractor Rheinmetall has announced its readiness to supply weapons to peacekeepers in Ukraine.

On March 16, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev warned that the Kremlin would view the deployment of Western peacekeepers in Ukraine as a declaration of war against NATO.

On March 21, Italy's Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani stated that his country could send peacekeepers to Ukraine only under the United Nations flag.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that a UN peacekeeping mission cannot be an alternative to a military contingent or security guarantees.

On April 11, The Telegraph reported that the UK is considering the possibility of stationing troops in Ukraine for five years.
