Germany and Poland say they're not sending troops to Ukraine as the Kremlin warns of a wider war

The articles discuss the potential deployment of ground troops by European countries, including France and Sweden, to Ukraine in response to Russia's invasion. While French President Emmanuel Macron suggested that nothing should be excluded in terms of supporting Ukraine, other European countries such as Germany, Sweden, Poland, and the Czech Republic have distanced themselves from this idea, stating there is no consensus on sending troops. The Kremlin has warned that direct conflict between Russia and NATO would become inevitable if NATO members sent troops to fight in Ukraine. The head of NATO and the Russian government have both stated that there are currently no plans for NATO combat troops to be deployed in Ukraine, but the possibility of conflict remains a concern. Sweden is focusing on sending military equipment to Ukraine instead of troops at this time.
