Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni told parliament in Rome that Italy will not send troops to Ukraine, reaffirming a long held position even in the event of a future peace deal. She said recent talks in Berlin with President Volodymyr Zelensky, European leaders and US negotiators were constructive and produced a joint declaration reflecting Italy’s priorities. Meloni argued that security guarantees for Ukraine should come from international allies, led by the United States, and referenced NATO style commitments as an alternative. Her remarks come as European leaders discuss the possibility of a multinational force for Ukraine following any peace agreement, with details still unclear.
