“Russia does not give the impression of sincerely wanting peace.

“It is intensifying the fighting. President Putin wants to obtain everything, then negotiate.” he added.

He added that their strategy of peace through strength is currently under threat.

Additionally, pressure must be applied to Russia to achieve a ceasefire.

“If we want peace, Russia must respond clearly, and pressure must be clear, in coordination with the US, in order to reach a ceasefire,” Macron declared.

Macron also thanked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for being courage to propose a peace initiative with US President Trump.

He also thanked him for offering a one-month ceasefire.

Macron emphasized that for the sake of lasting peace, it is necessary to help Ukraine endure so that, in the future, it will have a strong army defending its country.

He also stated that they must be ready to guarantee that peace, calling for collective strength.

Notably, Macron participated in a summit of Ukraine’s allies, held this morning via video link.
