“Australia’s contribution to a #MilitaryForce in #Ukraine to help deter #Russia from breaking a possible ceasefire would likely be *limited to ADF personnel helping with training and planning*, as a growing divide emerges between #AnthonyAlbanese and Peter Dutton on the proposal.

Dutton ramped up his opposition to Australia’s possible contribution to a peacekeeping force in Ukraine in a speech to the Lowy Institute on Thursday, saying “we are a middle power and we don't have an ability to have a presence in multiple theatres”.

Albanese has said his #government is open to requests to contribute to a #peacekeeping force after Britain and France both committed to sending troops in the event of a ceasefire.

The total force to be deployed by European nations and other countries like Australia could be as much as 30,000. An Australian delegation led by Australia's military representative to #NATO, Air Vice Marshal #DiTurton, will participate in planning talks in London today where options will be discussed.”

The news you don’t see, read or hear on the tele, radio or newspapers in Australia.

“Australia willing to consider joining #PeaceKeeping effort in #Ukraine: ‘It is the right thing to do and it is in Australia’s #NationalInterest. Because what happens in the #EuroAtlantic has serious implications for our region – the #IndoPacific – and vice versa.

This is a #struggle not just for the people of Ukraine & their #NationalSovereignty. This is a struggle for the International #RuleOfLaw.

President #Putin’s regime has imperialist designs, for Ukraine and beyond.’ — #AnthonyAbanese 🍌🇦🇺⚔️

“What they’re fighting for is the international rule of law [and] #Australia stands ready to assist. We have contributed $1.5bn with $1.3bn for military assistance directly.

*There’s discussion at the moment about potential #peacekeeping*, and from my government’s perspective,

we’re open to consideration of any proposals going forward, as Australia has historically played an important role in … a range of peacekeeping areas.”

What a weak bunch of *#nts. Elections are soon and #Labor needs to be seen to bd tough. Watch what the PM and his loyal mob say Australia can’t afford at election time for Australians. It’s all too hard and costly.

Continued thread

#Starmer says the #UK is ready to put “boots on the ground & planes in the air” to enforce a future #peace deal in #Ukraine.

Any efforts to get #Trump to help clearly have not worked since Trump has made no mention of American forces supporting a #peacekeeping mission.

“History must be on the side of the peacemaker, not on the invader,” Starmer says alongside Trump, who ended the diplomatic isolation of #Russia, called #Zelensky a dictator, & falsely accused Ukraine of starting the #war.
