Emmanuel Macron discusses situation in Ukraine with Joe Biden
The Xinhua reported that the Elysee said in a press release on Tuesday, French President Emmanuel Macron, along with several European leaders and heads of European Union (EU) institutions, held a video conference on Monday night with U.S. President Joe Biden.
During the video conference, Macron expressed his deep concern about the situation on the borders of Ukraine, and stressed the need to work collectively for a rapid de-escalation.
The de-escalation, according to the press release, requires constant coordination between European partners and allies, as well as an enhanced dialogue with Russia. It also requires negotiation efforts within the framework of the Normandy format.
Macron underlined that the EU can play its full part in an appropriate response to Russia's proposals raised in December last year on measures to ensure the security of Russia and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
