Emmanuel Macron says pressure must be placed on Russia to accept ceasefire or else ‘Trump will toughen sanctions and retaliation’

Quick Summary:

"This is a moment of truth because if Russia does not sincerely commit to peace, President Trump will toughen sanctions and retaliation, and so that will completely change the dynamic," Macron said.

"Russia must respond clearly and the pressure must be clear, in conjunction with the United States, to obtain this ceasefire," he added.

Military leaders from some 30 countries met in Paris on March 11 to discuss plans for a peacekeeping force in Ukraine, and will meet again Thursday in Britain.
