French Foreign Minister Stéphane Séjourné clarified on Tuesday President Emmanuel Macron's comments on the possibility of sending troops to Ukraine. “Some actions could require a presence on Ukrainian territory without crossing the threshold of belligerence,” he said.

Faced with Russia's aggressiveness, Westerners had to "consider new actions to support Ukraine", repeated SéJourné, referring to operations such as mine clearance, cyber or "weapons production (...) on the territory of Ukraine"
