Talk:Proposed multinational force in Ukraine

Factual errors

I made this revert for the following reasons:

This edit added a new reference from FT that appears to support the factual claim that Zelenskyy stated "legally binding and supported by the US Congress", but the FT reference does not support that factual claim. The quote is not present in the FT source.

This triple of edits added particularly in air and sea lines of operations to the sentence If the contribution in soldiers were to be long-term, then it would weaken British commitments to NATO, but the NUPI 14 reference does not state this information. Instead, it only states with air and naval contributions limited as it would detract from the UK's NATO role ... prior to saying anything in relation to long-term commitments. The text later continues with a contrast to the earlier context, However, to sustain this force indefinitely ... Committing ... to an open-ended operation ... permanently, and says nothing about sea and air contributions in the long-term context. Boud (talk) 20:55, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

Scheffer quote

This triple of edits added According to Alexandra de Hoop Scheffer of the German Marshall Fund, a US think tank, "France and the UK today are leading the overall deterrence security guarantee conversations, because these are the two European nuclear powers" from this source.

The most natural interpretation of deterrence security guarantee conversations is discussions about a promise of having military forces outside of Ukraine but ready to intervene if needed, while this page is mainly about a multinational force likely to be a peacekeeping force on Ukrainian territory. WP:OR is needed to infer that Scheffer was talking about the hypothetical multinational force that is the topic of this Wikipedia article. Boud (talk) 20:55, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

Informal title change proposal

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

Since the proposed multinational force does not exist concretely (yet), though as of 6 January it exists as a declaration of intent, I propose to rename this article to: proposed multinational force in Ukraine. The concern about WP:CRYSTAL was described in the AFD. If the force comes into existence and is given either a formal name or gains a WP:COMMONNAME, then another rename will become justified.

Any objections? Boud (talk) 08:04, 7 January 2026 (UTC)

Support. Thank you for care. Option for the title - Multinational force in Ukraine (intended). Better than non-existent Fort Trump in Poland, hopefully. D'Lisye (talk) 21:12, 13 January 2026 (UTC)

 Done - as there has been some support and no opposition to the proposal, I have now moved the article to its new title. Arcticocean ■ 10:45, 18 January 2026 (UTC)
