French leader Emmanuel Macron officially announced the creation of a "coalition" of countries that will provide Ukraine with medium- and long-range missiles, as well as bombs.

Ukraine to receive even more long-range missiles

The President of France emphasised during the official press conference, his country and other members of the European Union decided "to create a coalition for deep strikes and, therefore, medium and long-range missiles and bombs."

In addition, Emmanuel Macron asked the Europeans to "produce more" to meet the needs of the Armed Forces at the front.

Over the next ten days, we will make all these efforts because we have interviewed many European and non-European countries with ammunition.

As mentioned earlier, on February 25, it became known that Macron invited 20 EU leaders to hold a meeting in Paris.

In this way, the French president wanted to signal Russian dictator Vladimir Putin clearly about his determination to support Ukraine.

We want to send a very clear signal to Putin that he will not win in Ukraine. "Our goal is to break this idea that he wants us to believe that he will somehow win," one of Macron's advisers said in a statement.

Macron is planning a visit to Ukraine

Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy said his French colleague will soon come to Ukraine.

We recently had a meeting with Emmanuel. It seems to me that a signed agreement on security guarantees is very good. I think there will be some more details that we agreed on. But I would like them to leave him, emphasised the President of Ukraine.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy also confirmed that Macron intends to announce additional aid for the Armed Forces.
