MOSCOW: Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov jokingly answered a question about the "coalition of the willing" during a visit to the call center for the Results of the Year program with Vladimir Putin.
Preparations are ramping up for the event, combining the president’s direct Q&A session and large year-end press conference. It will be held at noon on December 19.
Peskov, who was checking up on things at the call center, was asked by journalists to comment on a statement by the "coalition of the willing" about its readiness to deploy troops in Ukraine.
"The ‘coalition of the willing’ did not contact the Q&A session," he responded, according to footage on the Vesti TV program Telegram channel.
On Monday, top European leaders said in a statement that security guarantees for Kiev should include the creation of a European-led "multinational force for Ukraine." It indicates that these forces should be formed within the framework of the "coalition of the willing" and with the support of the United States.
