This war was started by Russia alone. And today it is clear that Russia alone has chosen to continue it – with a clear disregard for human lives, international law and the diplomatic efforts of President Trump, – French President Emmanuel Macron wrote on the social platform X.
“This morning, two Russian missiles fell in the heart of the Ukrainian city of Sumy, killing many civilians, including children. Everyone knows: this war was started by Russia alone. And today it is clear that Russia alone has chosen to continue it – with a clear disregard for human lives, international law and the diplomatic efforts of President Trump,” Macron wrote.
He said that tough measures are needed to force Russia to cease fire.
“Strong measures are needed to impose a ceasefire on Russia. France is working tirelessly to achieve this goal, together with its partners. I appeal to the victims, the wounded and all of Ukraine, which continues to resist: our solidarity, our respect, our unwavering commitment to you,” Macron wrote.
