UK Steps Up Plan to Send Troops to Ukraine as US Revives Talks

The UK has identified which military units it would send to Ukraine after a series of reconnaissance visits in the country, ensuring it would be ready to swiftly deploy troops if the latest effort to revive peace talks succeeds.

Britain updated their plans to send troops to Ukraine as part of the so-called Coalition of the Willing after conducting a readiness review and completing scouting missions in Ukraine over the summer, Defense Secretary John Healey said. Military chiefs have determined which personnel they would deploy and where their headquarters would be located, as part of plans for a grouping of 30 countries led by the UK and France to support Ukraine.
