Asked whether New Zealand would be prepared to send peacekeeping troops to Ukraine in the event of a ceasefire, Christopher Luxon told RNZ that was something he "would be open to".

If there is an ongoing hot war you are not sending peacekeepers, you are sending mercenaries. If the war is over why do you need peacekeepers?

    I think peace keepers mostly help train local security forces so locals are helping locals instead of foreign forces telling citizens what to do.

    That’s what they write down on a piece of paper that they are going to show to the public.

    We have seen in afghanistan that they do actual combat operations.
