Emmanuel Macron quoted Winston Churchill during his interview on Ukraine. The French president urged Europeans not to give up in the face of Russia.

“The sinews of peace” is the name given by Churchill to one of his most famous speeches. In this speech, Churchill foresees the “cold war” which will divide the United States and the USSR in the decades to come. At a time when a new war is being fought at the gates of Europe, will Emmanuel Macron's words have as much effect on the international sphere as those of the Old Lion?
