15:38Now PlayingJD Vance has sparked a furious backlash and accusations he disrespected British and French troops.
The US Vice President dismissed the idea of sending 20,000 British and French troops to Ukraine as a peacekeeping force, saying that a military presence from ‘some random country’ won’t be enough.
He told Fox News that the only way to bring lasting peace is to give Washington an economic interest in the future of Ukraine.
He said: "If you want real security guarantees, if you want to actually ensure that Vladimir Putin does not invade Ukraine again, the very best security guarantee is to give Americans economic upside in the future of Ukraine," he said.
"That is a way better security guarantee than 20,000 troops from some random country that hasn't fought a war in 30 or 40 years."
He later rejected suggestions he was speaking about Britain and France.
