Fact Check: Greek Prime Minister Did NOT Reveal Britain, Poland, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia Wanted To Deploy Their Troops To Ukraine In Paris Talks No Exposé

Did Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis divulge that Britain, Poland, Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia expressed their willingness to send troops to Ukraine during the February 26, 2024, talks in Paris? No, that's not true: A statement posted on his website indicated that Mitsotakis did not mention these countries in his remarks following the summit.

The claim appeared in a post on February 28, 2024, no longer available on TikTok but archived here. The text (translated from Czech and Polish to English by Lead Stories staff) read:

The prime minister of Greece divulged who wanted to send their troops to Ukraine!
They were:
Great Britain
Poland
Lithuania
Estonia
Latvia
Are you surprised?
