French President Emmanuel Macron hopes that a truce in Russia's war against Ukraine is possible in the coming weeks.
He believes it would only be a prerequisite for full-fledged peace talks, Fox News reported.
“I'm hopeful. And I think everyone remembers all the losses and what the Ukrainian people have been going through for the last three years, and they're just defending their territory and sovereignty,” he said.
He believes that Trump's rise to power is a game changer and believes that the U.S.'s deterrence capability provides an opportunity to engage with Russia.
“So I think it's possible in the foreseeable future,” Macron said.
He has some caveats about a quick reconciliation with Moscow.
Macron believes that what the sides need now is a ceasefire that can be assessed and verified, as well as full-fledged negotiations.
He said they need to be careful about this because they already agreed on a ceasefire with Russia in 2014, but each time Russia violated it.
According to him, the ceasefire is needed to see how committed Russia is to its promises.
