Macron considered the Ukrainian summit held on Monday in Paris as a significant step in discussing future actions regarding the war, emphasizing that it was not intended to take a stance on the actions of the United States.
The French president also mentioned that he had held phone conversations with U.S. President Donald Trump before and after the summit. He expressed his belief that the United States does not seek to withdraw from NATO.
