France, Germany and Poland agree to “never take the initiative of escalation”, declares Macron. “We will continue to support Ukraine and its people as long as necessary,” he assured the press after a three-way summit.
The French president met Olaf Scholz and Donald Tusk in Berlin, where he reaffirmed the support of European states for Ukraine against Russia. The meeting followed weeks of tensions, notably with Germany, on the strategy of support for Ukraine.
