U.S. troops in Ukraine? Here's how Donald Trump responds
U.S. President Donald Trump

US President Donald Trump has ruled out sending US troops to Ukraine to implement a possible peace deal with Vladimir Putin, softening a promise to provide Kiev with security guarantees that European allies had called a significant advance towards halting the Kremlin's invasion of Ukraine.

Asked during a telephone interview with Fox News if he could reassure listeners, including many members of his MAGA base who support an isolationist "America First" foreign policy, that the U.S. would not deploy troops on the ground in Ukraine, Trump said: "You have my guarantee and I am president."

However, he said Washington may be willing to provide air support to Ukraine in order to support a deal, in what would still be a dramatic change in his administration's policy on the conflict.

"There will be some form of security. It cannot be NATO," he said, ruling out Ukraine's admission to the transatlantic bloc. "They are ready to put people on the ground. We're willing to help them with things, especially, maybe, if we can talk about it from the air."

White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy had both expressed "a willingness to sit down with each other". She added: "I understand that accommodations are being made for that meeting."

Bloomberg reported that Hungary has expressed interest in hosting such a meeting. French President Emmanuel Macron had proposed Geneva, with the Swiss foreign minister promising "immunity" to Putin despite a lawsuit by the International Criminal Court.

Russia has said it sees the deployment of troops by NATO countries in Ukraine as a red line in the negotiations. Trump dismissed this concern on Tuesday and said he was still optimistic about the potential to reach a deal with Putin.
