French President Emmanuel Macron made a striking statement the other day. Macron, who said that Russia has become a threat to France and all of Europe, noted that he plans to hold a meeting next week in the capital Paris with all European army commanders.
PUTIN'S RESPONSE TO MACRON: "WE MUST GO TO THE END AND NOT BOW"
A response came to Macron from Russian President Vladimir Putin. In a meeting with employees of the "Foundation of Defenders of the Fatherland" in Russia, Putin made statements regarding the war in Ukraine. Expressing that they plan to achieve victory in the war, Putin noted that the West is trying to pressure Russia. Putin stated, "We are really expecting victory. When peace is achieved, our children will rest in peace. However, we must go to the end and not bow to anyone."
"WE WILL NOT GIVE UP WHAT BELONGS TO US"
Putin continued: "We must choose a form of peace that suits us and will ensure peace in the long-term historical perspective of our country. We do not need anything that belongs to others, but we will not give up what belongs to us. We need an option that will ensure the stable development of our country under conditions of peace and security."
ZHAROVA: MACRON'S THESES ARE FAKE
On the other hand, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova evaluated current issues at a press conference held in the capital Moscow. Evaluating French President Emmanuel Macron's statements that "the French nuclear capacity could be used for European security and that Russia is preparing to fight Europe," Zakharova said, "These are a series of fake theses. It is impossible for Macron not to understand that one of the main reasons for the Ukraine crisis lies in the West's deliberate disregard for Russian interests."
"A CEASEFIRE IS UNACCEPTABLE"
Zakharova stated that European countries oppose a peaceful resolution to the Ukraine crisis, saying that France and England are trying to temporarily halt the conflicts in Ukraine. Zakharova said, "Serious agreements are needed for the final resolution of the Ukraine issue. A ceasefire is unacceptable. This will lead to the opposite results. The deployment of military units under European flags in Ukraine is also absolutely unacceptable."
"UKRAINE MUST RETURN TO THE FOUNDATIONS OF 1990"
Zakharova stated that Ukraine can provide security guarantees on its own, saying, "Ukraine can do this by returning to the state foundations outlined in the Declaration of Establishment of 1990. Here, there is a status of neutrality, non-participation in any alliance, non-possession of nuclear weapons, and renunciation of Nazi ideology."
Zakharova pointed out that Germany has turned a blind eye to the activities of the Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK) supported by Ukraine, stating, "Germany is playing with fire by interacting with this organization. This fire can also spread to Germany. We advise the German side to assess the risks of supporting such organizations. Germany has painful experience in this regard."
