Russian attack on NATO troops in Ukraine wouldn’t trigger article 5 - Germany

Article 5 of the NATO treaty, which enshrines the bloc's collective military response policy, would not be triggered should any member's troops deployed to Ukraine be attacked by Russia, a report by an a German parliament expert group seen by wire agency dpa has claimed.
Reflecting the principle of collective defense of the 31 NATO members, Article 5 states that an armed attack against one or more of the members shall be considered an attack against all.
“If troops of a NATO member state engage in collective self-defense in favor of Ukraine in an existing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and are attacked by the other party to the conflict in the course of the battle in the conflict area, this does not constitute a case of Article 5 NATO Treaty,” the experts wrote.
According to the unpublished document, Article 5 of the NATO Treaty can only be triggered if member countries of the US-led military bloc are attacked on or over their own territory.
“A military engagement of French ground troops in favor of Ukraine would be based on the collective right of self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter and would therefore be permissible under international law,” the document stated.
Researchers noted that the deployment of ground troops from one NATO country to Ukraine would not automatically make all other members parties to the conflict. Only the state in question would become a party, they concluded.
“If the NATO member state acts unilaterally – i.e. not within the framework of a previously decided NATO operation and outside NATO military command structures – neither NATO as a whole nor the other NATO partner states become parties to the conflict,” the report read.
At the same time, the document indicates that sending NATO troops to Ukraine is acceptable under international law.
