“The French president is worried about the consequences of this conflict. He just said it himself just now: ‘It’s the choice between war and peace.’ He feels he is dividing the West and the rest of the world. He also tried during his speech to rally the countries which, for the moment, remain neutral. A growing divide, aggravated by the climate crisis, of which the countries of the South are the first victims. The climate is the other major point of his speech. Here again, Emmanuel Macron seeks to embody a form of leadership”concludes the journalist.
