Next week in Paris, France will gather the chiefs of general staff of the countries that are ready to guarantee future peace in Ukraine, announced this evening in a televised address French President Emmanuel Macron, quoted by Agence France-Presse, BTA reported.
Peace in Ukraine “may also include the deployment of European forces. They will not go to fight now, they will not go to fight on the front line, but they will be there after the peace is signed to guarantee its full compliance. "Next week we will gather in Paris the chiefs of staff of the countries that are willing to assume their responsibilities in this regard," the French leader said.
"The Russian threat is present and concerns us," without "knowing borders," Macron also said.
"Faced with this world of dangers, it would be madness to remain a spectator," the French head of state added.
He noted that France must be ready if the United States is no longer by its side.
Macron made these statements against the backdrop of rapprochement between Moscow and Washington, AFP recalls.
