French president dispatches ground troops to Ukraine: “We are not in that situation right now”. Last month, French President Emmanuel Macron said that the possibility of Europe and America sending ground forces to Ukraine should not be ruled out in response to Russia's military invasion of Ukraine.

President Macron appears to have aimed to try to bring the situation under control by once again explaining his thoughts after his comments regarding the dispatch of ground troops caused a stir. He then stated, ``France will never attack or take the initiative.France is a country of peace.''
