What is the role of British troops in Romania and their readiness for potential involvement in Ukraine?

British troops are currently training in Romania, just 16 miles from the Ukrainian border, preparing for various scenarios including trench warfare. They form part of Britain's high readiness force training with NATO allies. Military leadership confirms these troops are 'absolutely ready' if called upon to help secure peace in Ukraine. However, officials emphasize that while the UK is willing to contribute to multinational efforts, they would not act alone. NATO's exercise in the region involves 10,000 personnel from eight European countries, though experts suggest securing a ceasefire might require significantly more forces.
