Macron's unilateral stance on Russia fractures EU unity, analysts warn
EUobserver·FR · EU · RU·2 days ago
French President Macron is proposing a 'double moratorium' covering strikes on Russian refineries and military actions in the Black Sea, citing efforts to prevent a fuel deficit. This marks a notable diplomatic initiative by a NATO leader to de-escalate the conflict, though it is unclear if Russia or Ukraine will accept. The proposal could signal a shift in Western posture toward negotiated restraint, but its viability is uncertain.
