Russian strikes on Ukraine must end — Macron
Macron informed his followers that on the night of April 6, Russia again launched numerous air strikes on Ukrainian cities, in addition to the strike on Kryvyi Rih on Friday, which killed 9 children.
On this day of national mourning in Ukraine, my thoughts are with the children and all the civilian victims of the deadly strikes carried out by Russia.
Emmanuel Macron
President of France
Macron recalled that Ukraine unconditionally agreed to US President Donald Trump's proposal for a 30-day ceasefire, but Russia continues the war with the same intensity and is not concerned about civilian casualties.
En ce jour de deuil national en Ukraine, j'ai une pensée pour les enfants et toutes les victimes civiles des frappes meurtrières menées par la Russie, comme à Kryvyï Rih le 4 avril.
— Emmanuel Macron (@EmmanuelMacron) April 6, 2025
Cette nuit encore, de nombreuses frappes russes ont visé des quartiers résidentiels de Kyiv…
These Russian strikes must end. A ceasefire is needed as soon as possible. And decisive action if Russia continues to try to buy time and refuse to accept a ceasefire. How much longer will Russia scoff at peace offers from the US and Ukraine while continuing to kill children and other civilians?
