“The leaders discussed the crisis in Ukraine. They agreed this is a critical moment for the course of the conflict, and there is an opportunity to turn the tide in the war. Both the Prime Minister and President Macron stressed the need to support Ukraine to strengthen their hand in both the war and any future negotiations.”
In addition, the leaders agreed to continue and strengthen the close cooperation of London and Paris in areas such as defense and security.
The British Prime Minister also laid emphasis on the fact that any attempt to settle the conflict now will only cause enduring instability. According to him, it would provide Russian President Vladimir Putin with the license to manipulate both sovereign countries and international markets in perpetuity.
The meeting of Johnson and Macron took place on the fields of the G7 summit, which takes place on June 26-28 in Bavaria.
