In 2025, the geopolitical landscape surrounding Ukraine has grown increasingly complex as Russia categorically rejects the involvement of the United Kingdom and French peacekeeping forces in the region. This refusal, driven by longstanding historical grievances and current strategic interests, forces the international community to seek alternative avenues for stabilizing Ukraine.
The thesis of this article contends that a successful peacekeeping solution in Ukraine requires the integration of neutral, multinational forces with the endorsement of both the United Nations and alternative regional organizations, as well as the careful incorporation of non-aligned nations whose military capabilities have been increasingly documented in the International Institute Peacekeeping Database of 2025.
At the heart of this debate is the need for a peacekeeping mission that balances the imperatives of neutrality and legitimacy. The United Nations, with its decades of experience in deploying peacekeeping missions in complex conflict zones, offers one of the most viable options. The UN’s history of impartial mediation and the diverse composition of its peacekeeping contingents have often served as a stabilizing force in regions characterized by intense external rivalries.
