Macron named the conditions for lifting sanctions from Russia
Kyiv • UNN
The President of France stated that sanctions will be lifted from Russia if it returns to the internationally recognized borders of Ukraine. Now is not the time to lift sanctions.
If Russia says that it is now fully returning to the internationally recognized borders of Ukraine, then all sanctions will be lifted from it. This was stated by French President Emmanuel Macron during a joint press conference with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, reports UNN.
I fully support the concept of peace through strength proposed by Trump. Peace through strength does not mean lifting sanctions before we have verified and checked everything. A country that has suffered aggression and is already making a gesture to accept an unconditional ceasefire - and on the other hand, an aggressor who begins to set conditions in order not to accept it
According to him, the issue of lifting sanctions from the Russian Federation is not on the agenda yet.
Therefore, the issue of sanctions will come, but this issue (lifting sanctions from Russia - ed.) is not on the agenda yet. It will be when it comes to lasting peace. If tomorrow Russia says that it is now fully returning to the internationally recognized borders of Ukraine, then all sanctions will be lifted
Addition
The EU has named the condition for lifting sanctions against the Russian Federation against the background of US-Russia negotiations.
