The Spin
Pro-establishment narrative
While it was a sovereign decision that each NATO ally would have to make for themselves, neither the US nor NATO as a whole will deploy troops in Ukraine. This was merely a proposal for thought ahead of a security conference and, upon discussion, it was disregarded.
Pro-Russia narrative
The notion of sending Western troops to Ukraine will inevitably lead to a war between Russia and NATO if not World War III. The fact this was even discussed as an option shows how badly the Ukraine strategy has failed and how delusional Western leaders have become.
