French President Macron Calls for European Unity in Facing International Challenges
French President Emmanuel Macron emphasized in a recent television address that France will take on the important responsibility of leading the free world, vowing to resolutely combat Russia's 'ubiquitous' aggression. Macron pointed out the complexity of the current international situation and its profound impact on Europe, urgently requiring strong leadership.
"I had hoped that the United States would stand with us, but that is not the reality. Therefore, we must be prepared to respond independently," Macron stated clearly in his speech. He noted that the war in Ukraine has resulted in nearly a million casualties and that the conflict continues to escalate. Meanwhile, U.S. support for Ukraine is gradually waning, raising widespread concerns in the international community about the future situation.
Macron emphasized that the world is entering a 'new era,' and the international situation is becoming increasingly 'brutal,' making the attitude of a bystander no longer applicable. He called for France and all of Europe to unite and continue supporting Ukraine until it achieves peace negotiations with Russia. He pointed out: "Peace cannot be achieved at the expense of Ukraine." This view indirectly criticizes the United States' passive attitude in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
Macron also mentioned that France will consider expanding its nuclear deterrent capabilities to protect the security of European countries. He emphasized, "France's nuclear deterrent is complete, sovereign, and independent. However, in response to the future German Chancellor's call, I have decided to initiate a strategic debate on how to protect European allies through nuclear deterrence." He further noted that Europe's future should not be determined by Washington or Moscow, and threats from the East are resurfacing. The peace and stability that have existed since the fall of the Berlin Wall are no longer present.
In addition, Macron criticized U.S. tariff policies, deeming them 'difficult to understand,' and said they have had a negative impact on both the U.S. and European economies. He urged that, in the context of the current turbulent international situation, Europe should maintain a clear mind and firmly uphold its own interests.
Macron's speech showcased France's firm position and leadership on the international stage, providing a clear direction for European unity and security.
