War in Ukraine
PUBLIC OPINION: Do you support deploying European troops to Ukraine?
French President Macron's statement that under certain conditions French troops could be sent to Ukraine has sparked controversy. Do you support the idea of European troops being deployed to Ukraine?
News platforms said it was the long-range version of the US weapon but there was no early Kyiv confirmation. It may have been Ukraine’s most ambitious ballistic missile strike of the war so far.

Yes I Do Believe European Troops be sent to Innocent Ukraine to help Ukraine get Putin Defeated and Destroyed and Innocent Ukraine get their Homelands Back.
Rephrase the question to “Would you support sending YOUR kids to fight to defend Ukraine” and watch support drop to 1%. Always easy to want to send other kids to die.
@BradM, Rephrase the question to "If your country was attacked would you want allies to come and help save your kids" and watch support go to 100%. Always easy to say no when its not your kids being killed.
@John, outstanding reply.
@John, You’ve quite literally made my point. People are always glad to “take” from others. If you were to similarly ask “would you want your country to get free cash from other country’s taxpayers” the response would also be 100% yes. Same with “would you want other country’s kids to die for your country.” That’s not the question though, is it? The question is “are you okay with your kids dying for Ukraine?” To that the answer is going to be 99% “NO!!” from most Europeans.
@BradM, How about this then....
"If any ally, had any weapon that could be deployed to help Ukraine quickly defeat putins' murderous invading orcs , would it be immoral not to send it". My Answer: YES
Or this:
"Is it immoral to not leverage our highly trained and well equipped military forces; to defend an ally's innocent citizens, and instead sit back and watch their slaughter". My Answer: YES
Or this:
"Should a soldier commanded by putin to risk their life to illegally invade a peaceful EU neighbour and immorally kill innocent citizens, instead turn their weapons upon his regime's leadership and end its reign of terror". My Answer: YES
Or this:
If any russian leader or kleptocratic, does not attempt to stop putin's illegal invasion and commands to target Ukraine's civilians, in violation of the Geneva convention, should they be held complicit for this tyrants crimes against humanity. My Answer: YES.
@John, You can try to deflect however much you want, but unless you’re willing to send your own kids to do this “highly moral and needed action” of risking your or your children’s lives for Ukraine, then you’re just a keyboard coward who is only brave enough to send other people’s kids. Or you don’t actually believe what you’re saying. So, again, why aren’t you and your kids at the front lines again?
@BradM, I already served many decades ago, which is something the likes of you would never do...unless of course putin conscripted you, and then (what with a russian firing squad being your only other option), you would probably go hoping you could latter escape before the Urkanian's deservedly finished you off.
A soldiers job is exactly what we are asking the leadership of our trained soldiers to now commit to. Yes if I had a kid in the military I would expect that particularly for such a just and noble cause, they would at least go Ukraine in the peace keeping capacity they may shortly be asked to fulfill.
We often see MRGA trolls like yourself trying to make the argument to do nothing which you are making. Looking back at your other comments its pretty clear who pays you. You only ever show up in the forums to insult, sow dissent, hate and falsehoods at Ukraine and its foreign supporters.
Any more questions troll?
This is not even a question it is 100% concretely clear and obvious that all NATO & other troops course should have been sent alreadt in 2014. what fool would even ask such a question? the only question is how could it possibly come to such disgusting cowardice and betrayal by the West of the wonderful Ukrainian people- Brave courageous ingenious being spat on by all of the defeatists and defamers and all of the lovers of of Russian genociders all over the West. The troops should be in there now getting rid of- destroying those genocider rapists.
This is not even a question it is 100% concretely clear and obvious that European troops should have been sent from every NATO Nation immediately already in 2014 into Crimea even before the Russians moved into East Ukraine to kick out the genociders. it is not putin, it is the Russian people collectively that must be totally defeated- not just kicked out entirely out of Ukraine but Russia needs to be broken down and defeated to the point where it won't ever come up with some ideas of attacking anyone else. The West is sickeningly coward traitorous - backstabbers of Ukraine, promising to send help but have only sent some junk and most of what they have promised they have not sent yet. This is the most egregious disgusting cowardice that one could possibly imagine- sitting back and watching Ukraine fight for the interests of the entire West while they piss themselves in fear of a little rabid dog like Putin and his gang and quake when he makes some ridiculous empty threats.
Further what is all of this idiotic talk of escalation? What escalation? The Russians have been throwing everything they have entirely all of it against Ukraine since February 2022 and cannot Advance at all. What a stupid question- should troops be sent? Of course they should have been sent. what fool would even ask such a question?
And what year was Crimea invaded by the little green orcs! Dont worry Nato , take your time and sip your cold coffee in the mean time.
@Jack Griffin 2, How funny, another Jack Griffin. President Zero refused to honer the Budapest Agreement that was signed during the Clinton Administration. And yet President-elect Trump and the Republican party is being vilified on these comment threads. Abject stupidity.
@THE NEW AND IMPROVED JACK GRIFFIN! JACK GRIFFIN 2!!, WTF are you talking about? There is literally no other mention of Trump on this comment thread apart from yours (and now mine). It may amaze you to hear this, but outside the USA practically nobody cares about internal American partisan bickering. All we want is for the USA to make good on its Budapest Memorandum promise to safeguard Ukraine's borders in return for them giving up their nukes. Just fucking do it. No more excuses about shutdowns or Mexican immigrants ofr whatever other internal problem has got you all distracted. Okay?
Yes. History tells us that when murderous dictators with a distorted views of history feed their oppressed populations a pack of lies, build the largest armies in Europe and go on the rampage in neighbouring countries that they must be confronted and defeated NEVER appeased.
Putin should be looking West at an impenetrable wall of strength stretching from Northern Finland to the Black Sea - not a bunch of dithering bureaucrats worried about provoking him. The French are the only people talking sense at the moment.
YES!!! Outside of nuclear putin has insufficient conventional forces to open up new warfront against better provisioned NATO members. He has no legal right to be in Ukraine
He has also already been spanked by China and India for his nuclear threats. Now they only talk about Nuclear as a final means of protecting sovereignty. It cannot be used offensively without incurring a WORLD of wraith.
Does not really matter if he is mad. Saner checks and balances are in between him and the button.
Full steam ahead with Ukraines permission. Allied boots on the ground, planes in the air, boats in the sea all for purposes of protecting Ukraines internationally recognized borders.
Weakness never stopped a bully. Don't even invite putin's leadership to the victory summit. Email a saner lower level official in Russia the terms for their invading forces surrender / withdrawal in Ukraine. Commence extracting russia's recompense to Ukraine...start with the $300-400 billion in frozen russian assets. Keep the sanctions on until the full debt is repaid to all allies.
For this war to end quickly and less loss of life, yes send NATO troops to Ukraine
No
Yes. It is necessary, and the “escalation” fear os irrational, as P*tin will anyway do whatever he wants, the sooner he is stopped the better.
