There are very unexpected countries ready to send troops to Ukraine, Zelenskyy says

There are expected and very unexpected countries ready to send their troops to Ukraine after the war with Russia ends, states Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a briefing.
Zelenskyy noted that there are currently no confirmations or specific details from countries ready to send troops to Ukraine.
"I consider confirmation to be when a country specifies with numbers what it is ready to provide. Theoretically, we understand that several countries are ready to take such steps. There are expected countries, and there are very unexpected ones, I would say. But not for intrigue, I’m just sharing what we have," the president said.
Deployment of troops to Ukraine
On August 18, a meeting took place at the White House between US President Donald Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and European leaders. The main topic of discussion was security guarantees for Ukraine.
Allies considered the possibility of security guarantees similar to NATO’s Article 5, but outside the Alliance.
During the talks, US President Donald Trump confirmed the US role in these guarantees, but emphasized that the primary burden should fall on European partners, and ruled out sending American troops to Ukraine.
Meanwhile, the Coalition of the Willing announced its readiness to deploy deterrence forces in Ukraine. After the White House meeting, about 10 countries agreed to send troops to Ukraine. The coalition will also send its military planners to the US for consultations.
Specifically, Germany stated that it does not rule out the possibility of deploying its military contingent to Ukraine, while the United Kingdom explicitly confirmed its readiness to send troops during the first week after a potential peace agreement or ceasefire with Russia comes into effect.
Estonia is ready to send a military peacekeeping contingent to Ukraine consisting of one company.
Belgium is also ready to send its troops to Ukraine as part of a peacekeeping mission after the war with Russia ends.
Türkiye, within the framework of security guarantees, also allows sending troops to Ukraine.
At the same time, Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz stated that his country will not send troops to Ukraine.
Greek government spokesperson Pavlos Marinakis also said that the country "will assist in such a matter, but not with troops."
Latvian President Edgars Rinkēvičs said it is premature to discuss sending troops to Ukraine. According to him, a peace agreement must first be concluded, and the main elements of the agreement, the security guarantees, and the role of European countries need to be clarified.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wants to see a military contingent from "major powers" in Ukraine.
