Nato chief says no plans to send combat troops to Ukraine if Russia invades

Nato has no plans to deploy combat troops to non-Nato member Ukraine in the event of a Russian invasion, Nato Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said on Sunday.
Asked on BBC Television whether he would rule out putting Nato troops in Ukraine if Russia does invade, Stoltenberg said: "We have no plans to deploy Nato combat troops to Ukraine ... we are focusing on providing support."
"There is a difference between being a Nato member and being a strong and highly valued partner as Ukraine. There's no doubt about that."
