Kremlin in response to Macron: Sending forces to Ukraine would not be in the interest of the West. Macron announced new steps to support Ukraine in its battle against Russia.

French President said it is not unlikely to send Western ground forces to achieve Europe's goal of defeating Moscow. In his speech, Macron painted a bleak picture of Russia, whose positions he said were “hardening” at home and on the battlefield. The French President added that it was decided to create a coalition to conduct strikes in depth and then to supply Ukraine with medium- and long-range missiles and bombs.
