NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that the military alliance had no plans to send troops into Ukraine, the Associated Press reported on Tuesday.

"NATO allies are providing unprecedented support to Ukraine … But there are no plans for NATO combat troops on the ground in Ukraine," said Stoltenberg.

The Kremlin on Tuesday warned that if European members of NATO sent troops to fight in Ukraine then it would make a conflict between Russia and NATO inevitable.

French President Emmanuel Macron opened the door on Monday to European nations sending troops to Ukraine, although he cautioned that there was no consensus at this stage as allies agreed to ramp up efforts to deliver more munitions to Kyiv.
