French President Emmanuel Macron said in an interview with the hosts of the unified Ukrainian telethon on Saturday that his country is not willing to take offensive initiatives against Russia, despite Paris' desire to provide Kiev with a strong position in negotiations on the end of the conflict.
"We will not take the path of escalation because we don't want another war, but we are prepared to say that we have no limits and we are prepared to react depending on Russia's actions," he noted.
Macron pointed out that he is ready to discuss with Russian President Vladimir Putin proposals to de-escalate the conflict in Ukraine. He stated he would "definitely come" to Ukraine, adding that "when I physically arrive - it will mean that it will be a strong message and new directions of cooperation."
