UN peacekeepers are not alternative to security guarantees

Ukraine does not consider a presence of UN peacekeepers as an alternative to partners' military contingent or security guarantees.

Axar.az reports Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated this.

"With all due respect, the UN will not protect us. We do not see the UN as an alternative to the contingent or security guarantees. It cannot be an alternative to security guarantees, because the UN will not have any mandate to protect Ukraine," he said.

Zelensky simultaneously admitted that he did not know whether the contingent would have such a mandate. "I don't have an answer to this question yet, but certainly when there are air defenses, ships, airplanes, a serious army, real intelligence of our partners, it is certainly very unsafe to go against such a structure. So, we do not consider [UN peacekeepers] as an alternative," he added.
