Live from Kyiv (Ukraine)the journalist Agnès Vahramyan takes stock of the meeting between Emmanuel Macron and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr ZelenskyThursday, June 16: “Emmanuel Macron held a position on the wire. He reassured the Ukrainians who doubted French sincerity, who still find him too conciliatory with Russia. The increase in military aid was a very positive signal here in Kyiv.“
“France, which is validating Ukraine’s candidacy for entry into the European Union, is a step towards restoring confidence, even if the president said that it would be a very long process. So, Emmanuel Macron also made more difficult remarks. He said that at some point it would be necessary to negotiate with Russia, to speak with Vladimir Putin, but he did it this time with chosen words, and without giving the impression of putting pressure on Ukraine“, concludes the journalist
