The French president previously announced plans to “create a ninth coalition for deep strikes” to supply bombs and long-range missiles to Ukraine.
He also said that the possibility of sending Western troops to Ukraine cannot be ruled out.
“Macron should think about his belligerent rhetoric and stop.
This reckless and irresponsible statement brings NATO directly closer to war with Russia,” Tsekov told RIA Novosti.
With his actions, Macron “risks transferring the conflict to French territory,” the senator added.
“Let’s hope that the people of European countries will stop these crazy politicians,” the parliamentarian added.
As President Vladimir Putin noted in an interview with Tucker Carlson, sending regular troops of other countries to Ukraine would put the world on the brink of a global conflict.
