Milan, 27 August (LaPresse) – The United States is reportedly ready to provide intelligence and battlefield oversight to any Western security plan for Ukraine designed for the post-war period, as well as to participate in a European-led air defence shield for Kiev. This was reported by the Financial Times, citing European and Ukrainian officials. Washington, the FT points out, would be willing to contribute “strategic tools” such as intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), as well as command and control of air defence resources, to enable any European-led deployment on the ground.
