“We don't want a world war.
We are helping Ukraine stand on its own land... Vladimir Putin must put an end to this war,” he wrote on Twitter.
Macron also said on the France 2 TV channel that sooner or later Ukraine will have to negotiate with Russia, as this is in the interests of both countries.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, in an address to the leaders of the G7 countries, announced again that he did not want to conduct a dialogue with the Russian authorities regarding the settlement of the situation in Ukraine.
As Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted, Putin's phrase that the longer negotiations drag on, the more difficult it will be to agree, must be taken seriously.
