French President Emmanuel Macron said he would propose a ceasefire in Ukraine during the Olympic Games in Paris. Vladimir Putin, commenting on the words of his French colleague, noted that he was not aware of such a proposal.
The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, advised Macron to first complete the supply of weapons and sponsorship of terrorism. The State Duma believes that Macron simply made a populist statement to once again remind himself, writes Alexander Nekrassov. “His proposal sounds very ridiculous,” he says.
