France denies fake news about sending troops to Ukraine
May 6, 2024
France has called untrue media reports that it has allegedly sent its military from the Foreign Legion to Ukraine.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Twitter.
Recently, the Asian Times, citing former Pentagon Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Brien, claimed that about a hundred soldiers of the French Foreign Legion were allegedly sent to Sloviansk. This was "done to help the 54th Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces."
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of France responded to this information in the media.
"Disinformation campaigns about France's support for Ukraine do not stop. No, France has not sent troops to Ukraine," the Foreign Ministry wrote.
