Western allies propose three-tier defense plan for post-war Ukraine
The Financial Times reported the information.According to the outlet, last week, U.S. President Donald Trump told European leaders that America would participate in coordinating security guarantees for post-war Ukraine, as Kyiv has requested to prevent future Russian attacks.Senior U.S. officials have told European counterparts that Washington is ready to provide “strategic enablers” such as intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), command and control and air defense assets to support any European-led deployment, four officials told the FT.Washington already provides Ukraine with Patriot air defense missiles, but post-war support would also include U.S. aircraft, logistics, and ground-based radar to help enforce a European-led no-fly zone and air shield, officials said.“Under any peace deal, the US’s vastly superior intelligence, surveillance and command and control capabilities would enable satellite monitoring of a ceasefire and effective co-ordination of western forces in the country,” the outlet noted.Officials added that the U.S. continues to oppose sending its own troops to Ukraine. Other Trump administration figures, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, are skeptical of joining postwar guarantees, fearing it could draw the U.S. into future conflicts.Trump said on Monday that “we haven’t even discussed the specifics of” security guarantees for Ukraine. “We’ll be involved from the standpoint of backup. We’re going to help them,” he told reporters.He told Fox News last week that the U.S. was “willing to help” a European force “especially, probably, by air”.Western capitals have outlined a preliminary plan that includes a demilitarized zone, potentially patrolled by neutral peacekeeping forces from a third country agreed upon by Ukraine and Russia. Behind that, a stronger border would be defended by Ukrainian troops trained and armed by NATO, according to three officials.A European-led deterrence force would be stationed deeper in Ukraine as a third line of defense, supported by U.S. assets from the rear. However, even with potential U.S. backing, many European politicians and the public remain wary of deploying troops to Ukraine.Andriy Yermak, the Ukrainian president’s chief of staff, said that each country in the coalition would contribute differently, “and in the end the picture will be a mix of military, political and economic support.”“The US can provide the backbone that makes the whole security and deterrence architecture work,” he concluded.On August 25, U.S. President Donald Trump’s special representative Keith Kellogg said that diplomatic work on security guarantees for Ukraine was ongoing and very complex.U.S. Vice President JD Vance stated that Washington is “not talking about security guarantees until after the war has come to a close.”
