French President Emmanuel Macron said that lasting peace in Ukraine is only possible with the participation of Ukrainians themselves in the negotiation process. The event should guarantee the reliable protection of Ukraine in the future. He mentioned this during a joint briefing with Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk in Warsaw, reports said Ukrinform on Thursday, December 12th.
Macron mentioned Poland’s important role in providing military, logistical and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine, stressing that supporting Ukraine at the current stage is a common cause of European countries.
“We agree: lasting peace can only be achieved through negotiations, and Ukrainians must lead these negotiations.
He added that the security of Ukraine is inextricably linked to the security of the whole of Europe. According to him, it is necessary to work closely with the administration of US President Donald Trump, who has expressed his willingness to influence the resolution of the conflict.
Next week, issues in Ukraine will be discussed at a meeting of the European Council. Macron also recalled the decision of the G7 to allocate 50 billion euros to Ukraine.
