Macron promised Zelensky the increase in arms supplies.
French President Emmanuel Macron has promised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that the volume of French arms shipments to Ukraine will intensify.
The Ukrainian claimed to have had a “long and significant” phone call with his French counterpart.
Zelensky announced through social media that he had talked to Macron about Ukraine’s application to join the European Union.
During the telephone conversation, Macron said the application would be considered by EU members at a summit in June and reiterated an idea of creating a new “political community” outside the EU to facilitate Ukraine’s integration. .
Long opposed to Ukraine’s EU membership, Russia briefly agreed to the prospect during a round of peace talks.
However, this support was later canceled, with officials blaming comments made by EU chief diplomat Josep Borrell that the war between the two nations “will be won on the battlefield”.
