No time for dialogue: Macron accused Putin of lying and told how the war in Ukraine will end

French President Emmanuel Macron accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of lying. Therefore, earlier the head of the Kremlin told the French leader Wagner that the PMC has nothing to do with the Russian Federation. Politico writes about it.

“I met with Putin a year ago and he assured me that Russia has nothing to do with the Wagner group,” Macron said at the Munich Security Conference.

The publication writes that since then it has become clear that the Wagner PMC provides significant support to the Russian regular troops in the war against Ukraine. Thus, as Macron said, Moscow accepted the fact that the Wagenrovists are its own “neo-mafia” tool.

According to Macron, now is not the right time for dialogue with Russia. He urged the West to increase support for Ukraine so that it could launch a successful counterattack.

However, as the French president has pointed out, once Kiev wins and negotiations on Ukraine’s terms begin, Europe and Russia will have to come to a “faulty balance” on the continent. He suggested that the Russian Federation and its rivals should agree on a new regional security architecture. However, it is too early to talk about any specific conditions at the moment.

Earlier, journalists wrote that Ukraine’s neighbors fear reconciliation with the Russian Federation. Compared to Western Europe, Eastern European countries are more susceptible to Russian invasion of Ukraine and tend to perceive even a partial Russian victory as their defeat.

Moreover Focus US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken reported that he was concerned about the Kremlin’s plans to stage a coup in Moldova. On the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference, the US Secretary of State noted that Washington will resolutely support Moldova’s security, independence and territorial integrity.
