Independent: Russia has no say in deployment of foreign troops in Ukraine, says Macron

President Macron of France may be right when he says that Russia has no say with regard to French or UK troops’ deployment in Ukraine.
Macron may order his troops where he want, he just may feel some consequences.
Russia may not want a ceasefire if this ceasefire will lead to the deployment of NATO troops in Ukraine, at least that’s what the Russian leadership said unisono and repeatedly. Russia said it will consider NATO troops in Ukraine as targets.
From a Russian perspective, one may just think for a second what NATO troops marching in Ukraine may mean, in particular, NATO troops ready to fight Russia. It would not be refuted by Western analysts that Russia’s security situation may worsen with NATO troops approaching in Ukraine. Even Macron may know this.
Russia may consider European NATO troops in Ukraine as a threat, not less than the perspective of Ukraine’s NATO membership.
The statement of Macron is contrary to peace. A ceasefire may be easily refused by Russia, in particular, pointing to NATO’s European member states’ willingness to send thousands of their troops side by side with Ukraine against Russia. Macron might have delivered to President Putin a valid reason to continue to negotiate for ceasefire and peace while advancing in Ukraine.
