Macron announces new meetings of Coalition of Willing in coming weeks
Over the next few weeks, new meetings will be held within the Coalition of the Willing to discuss further assistance to Ukraine and strengthening the Ukrainian army.
This was stated by French President Emmanuel Macron following the meeting, Censor.NET reports.
"In addition to the ceasefire, in order to prepare for a lasting peace, we are ready to think about how to prepare funding for Ukraine in the long term. And to provide sustainable guarantees and a model of the Ukrainian army that could withstand a possible attack in the future. We will also consider insurance for the deployment of forces to provide guarantees," he emphasized.
According to Macron, the partners currently do not have a specific form of military contingent in Ukraine, as their mandate "will depend on the course of discussions" on the ceasefire.
At the same time, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer added that if there is no foreign contingent in Ukraine, Putin is likely to violate the agreements.
