Trump Rules Out US Ground Troops for Ukraine Amid Renewed Peace Talk Hopes

President Donald Trump has unequivocally stated that the United States will not deploy ground troops to Ukraine as part of any future security guarantees, even as significant diplomatic momentum builds toward potential peace talks with Russia. Trump’s declaration came after a key meeting of the ‘coalition of the willing,’ where nations discussed the framework for deterring future aggression against Ukraine.

While ruling out ‘boots on the ground,’ President Trump indicated the US remains open to other forms of security assistance, such as air support, but emphasized that Ukraine’s security should not solely hinge on NATO membership. This stance was echoed amidst ongoing efforts to broker a peace deal following the conflict.

Further fueling diplomatic optimism, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky have expressed willingness to engage in direct talks. US officials are actively assisting in arranging these high-level negotiations, with CBS News reporting Budapest as a potential location.

Looking ahead, NATO military leaders are scheduled to hold a virtual meeting tomorrow to continue discussions on diplomatic strategies aimed at securing a lasting peace in the region.
