Vice President JD Vance said putting American boots on the ground in Ukraine is "on the table" if Russian President Vladimir Putin rejects a peace deal with the war-torn country that provides long-term independence for Kyiv.

Vance said sending U.S. troops to Ukraine is among the options, including sanctions, the Trump administration is considering if Putin fails to negotiate in good faith an end to the war that began when Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 22, 2022.
