French President Emmanuel Macron is gearing up to host a high-stakes meeting in Paris next week with global leaders backing Ukraine. The goal? Finalize plans to strengthen Kyiv’s defense against Russia and pave the way for a potential truce.
"We’ll finalize work on military support, sustainable defense models, and security guarantees," Macron announced after an EU summit, confirming President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s attendance. The meeting follows months of coalition-building efforts spearheaded by Macron and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, aiming to counterbalance recent U.S.-Russia negotiations initiated by Donald Trump.
"Credible ceasefires need solid groundwork," Macron stressed, highlighting the urgency as the conflict enters its fourth year. The talks will address everything from short-term troop aid to long-term security strategies—a 'final push' to stabilize Ukraine’s future.
The move signals Europe’s growing role in shaping geopolitical solutions, with Macron calling the Paris meeting a "chance to fine-tune" strategies. As global powers jockey for influence, this coalition could redefine how the world tackles conflicts in the digital age.
