Storyline


Europe may send peacekeeping troops to Ukraine and assume greater regional security responsibilities, as the United States may offload the heavy burden of supporting Ukraine in the three-year-old Russia-Ukraine conflict after a ceasefire agreement is reached, according to a Chinese expert on international studies.

Defense ministers from Europe's five largest military nations -- France, Germany, Britain, Italy and Poland -- reaffirmed their support for peace in Ukraine when they met in Paris on Wednesday to discuss a new security framework for Ukraine.

"I think Europe has three considerations now. The first one is that Europe will remain steadfast in its support for Ukraine, as European countries believe that the conflict cannot be ended with a Russian victory or on Russia's terms. So Europe must bolster their support for Ukraine," Ding Xiaoxing, deputy secretary-general of the Academic Committee at China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations, said in a news program of China Media Group (CMG) on Thursday.

"Secondly, the U.S. may offload the burden after the conflict, so Europe must assume its responsibility and send peacekeeping troops after the ceasefire. Currently, the United Kingdom and France in particular are planning to send peacekeeping troops," Ding continued.

With the U.S. appearing to be shifting its stance, the transatlantic relationship is experiencing significant strains, prompting Europe to strengthen its strategic autonomy, Ding said.

"And thirdly, in the long term, now that the transatlantic relationship is deeply fractured, Europe believes that it's high time to make a change, so it is taking the current situation as an opportunity to strengthen its strategic autonomy. Although there are quite many challenges, and Europe has a lot of problems, I think Europe may be on a path to autonomous defense," said the expert.
