Washington reacted to French President Emmanuel Macron’s statements about the introduction of Western troops into Ukraine. The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, has never asked for foreign troops to fight for his country, a White House spokesman said on Tuesday. And the head of French diplomacy, Stephane Sejournay, tried to nuance the leader’s statements in Paris, clarifying that it is necessary to “thwart Russia’s plans” without “entering the war.” Emmanuel Macron urged Ukraine’s allies not to be “cowardly” in supporting its fight against the Russian invasion. He “fully stood by” his statements last week, in which he called for foreign troops to be sent to Ukraine.
