The French leader once again reminded the international community that only Russia wanted this war and that it is continuing it, with no intention of stopping the fire.
"Today, it is clear that only Russia chooses to continue it. Against human lives, international law, and President Trump's diplomatic proposals," Macron stressed.
Against this backdrop, the French president called for decisive measures that would ultimately stop the aggressor country.
According to Macron, he and his team are actively working with their allies to achieve this goal.
