Vadym Prystaiko, the former Ukrainian ambassador to the UK, has claimed that the UK is one of the countries that, in the event of a "catastrophic development of the war" in Ukraine, could send its armed forces there.
Source: Prystaiko in an interview with Radio Svoboda, as reported by European Pravda
Details: Prystaiko commented on one of the arguments that Ukraine uses to justify the need for help - "if you don't help Ukraine now, sooner or later, your children will fight with Russia".
"What President Zelenskyy is saying now is that if we run out of forces, soldiers, or weapons that you don't supply us with, you will have to make a decision to help our Armed Forces. And some countries are approaching this decision. The UK is one of them. It is first on this list," he believes.

Russia could line the streets of Kiev with the hanging bodies of Ukrainian government officials and no NATO country would directly intervene.

Can’t meet recruitment quotas.
Those that are signing are just the snowflake woke.
Yeah, that’s the ticket.....let’s go to war with Russia to keep the money laundering schemes going.
Britain has had a whacked out obsession with Russia since the 1850s at least.
Have fun with that, suckers
The British military wouldn’t last a month against the Russians.
Please do. The more the better.
Just another lying Nazis Ukie full of bluster and bs. That’s all that ever comes out of that corrupt government.
> UK could send troops to Ukraine… <
Yes. And I could roll 10 dice, and get all 1’s. It’s more likely that I will be successful than the UK would send troops to Ukraine.
But I could be wrong here. After all, the UK could just send advisors. Nothing wrong with that. But these advisors would need force protection. That means air defense and perhaps a bit of infantry and artillery.
The next thing you know…
Abandon Ukraine, and yes, Moscow will continue on its’ historical trajectory to conquer and rule all its’ neighbors. Trajectory going back to Ivan the Terrible, in case you haven’t read any history outside of anonymous YouTube videos. Who learned his chops from the Mongols.
True or not, I fear if the Brits jump in there and it looks like they're going to get their asses handed to them, we'll be jumping in ourselves.
Bad idea all around. This whole mess is bad on all sides.

BS, this is just a canard to pressure the British people to support more billions to Ukraine.
Morocco has more Army troops than UK. On Global Power rankings, Morocco is # 24 in number of troops. UK is # 25.
Not a good idea.
