Almost two years after Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko called for United Nations peacekeepers in Eastern Ukraine, Vladimir Putin of Russia floated the idea of a light UN force with a limited mandate to protect international monitors already in the area. The proposal was seen as a non-starter by Kyiv and an attempt to cement and legitimize Moscow鈥檚 de-facto control in Ukraine鈥檚 Donbas region by Western partners. American and European officials countered with far more ambitious ideas for a peacekeeping force with a broader mandate, but talks with Russia have stalled.
