Putin foreign troops Ukraine warning

Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned that any foreign troops deployed in Ukraine following a peace agreement would be considered legitimate military targets. Speaking during a meeting with US President Donald Trump's envoys in Moscow on Thursday, November 12, Putin said such deployments would threaten Russia's security and could immediately restart the war. Putin Rejects European Troops in Ukraine Putin reiterated Moscow's opposition to foreign military personnel operating on Ukrainian territory, including European peacekeeping forces proposed as part of post-war security guarantees. He warned that deploying foreign troops after a settlement could trigger renewed hostilities, undermining efforts to establish lasting peace. The Russian president urged Washington to engage European governments on future security arrangements and stressed that Moscow wanted a permanent settlement rather than a temporary ceasefire. Trump Envoys Meet Putin for Ukraine Peace Talks US special envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner attended the Kremlin meeting alongside senior Russian officials. Kushner acknowledged that Russia and Ukraine had reached agreement on several negotiating principles but remained divided over how to implement them. He also raised European participation in future negotiations, noting that European governments wanted a role in determining Ukraine's security arrangements. Witkoff highlighted the recent agreement on a major prisoner exchange as evidence of diplomatic progress. Abu Dhabi Negotiations Leave Major Issues Unresolved The Moscow meeting followed US-mediated negotiations between Russia and Ukraine in Abu Dhabi on November 10 and 11. Those discussions produced an agreement on exchanging prisoners of war but failed to resolve disagreements over territorial demands and post-war security guarantees. Washington is seeking broader negotiations involving European governments, while Russia continues opposing foreign military deployments in Ukraine. The differences remain a major obstacle to reaching a comprehensive agreement to end the conflict.
