‘France leading West’s PARTY OF WAR’ | Kremlin hits back at Macron’s call for more sanctions

Russia has slammed French President Emmanuel Macron, accusing him of leading a “party of war” in NATO and the EU after he backed tougher sanctions on Moscow over the Ukraine conflict. The Kremlin says France is escalating hybrid warfare and blocking diplomacy by sending Mirage 2000 jets to Kyiv. Kremlin spokesperson Zakharova condemned the sanctions as an illegitimate trade war. Putin demands Ukraine halt mobilization and withdraw from Russian-claimed territories before any meaningful ceasefire talks can begin. #RussiaFranceTensions #Macron #UkraineWar #EUvsRussia #PartyOfWar #HybridWarfare #Zakharova #Putin #Mirage2000 #FranceUkraineSupport #RussiaSanctions #MacronVsPutin #EUForeignPolicy #KremlinWarning #TradeWar #EconomicPressure #NATO #UkraineConflict #RussiaIsolation #CeasefireDebate #EasternEuropeCrisis Also Read West Pitching China-India Against Each Other: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/west-pitching-china-india-against-each-other-russian-foreign-minister-sergei-lavrov-4155227.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Army Gets Russia-Made Igla-S Missiles :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indian-army-gets-russia-made-igla-s-missiles-4143017.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.125~

‘Kiev has no capacity...’ | Macron STUNS Ukraine with a brutal assessment

French President Emmanuel Macron has delivered a stark assessment of the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war, stating bluntly that Ukraine cannot retake territories already lost to Russia. Acknowledging that even Ukrainian authorities are aware of this, Macron emphasized the need for a united international effort to support Ukraine—without escalating into World War III. Calling for peace, he said Ukraine must be positioned strongly for negotiations and confirmed that Ukraine will not be joining NATO. Instead, Macron proposed a deployment of reassurance forces by willing allies, stationed far from the frontlines. The comments come ahead of planned peace talks in Istanbul, which remain deadlocked over Ukraine’s refusal to give up its territorial claims, including Crimea. #Macron #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #France #PeaceTalks #UkraineCrisis #Crimea #WorldWar3 #Geopolitics #MacronStatement #UkraineRussiaWar #BreakingNews #FranceForeignPolicy #NATO #Peacekeeping #Ceasefire #MacronOnUkraine #UkraineUpdate #GlobalSecurity #RussiaWarning #IstanbulTalks #UkraineTerritories #MacronSpeech #MilitarySupport #UkraineAllies #UkraineNegotiations #UkraineNews #RussiaUkrainePeace #SolidarityWithUkraine #UkraineNotInNATO Also Read Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Army Gets Russia-Made Igla-S Missiles :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indian-army-gets-russia-made-igla-s-missiles-4143017.html?ref=DMDesc Pahalgam Attack: Scared Pakistan Seeks China, Russia's Intervention For Investigation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pahalgam-attack-scared-pakistan-seeks-china-russias-intervention-for-investigation-4136899.html?ref=DMDesc

US Preparing New Sanctions On Russia But Trump’s SHOCKING Action Stalls Sign-Off Amid Peace Talks

The US has drafted a new sanctions package against Russia targeting major energy and banking sectors.

Internal debate continues as senators demand harsher penalties, while others warn sanctions could derail diplomacy.

US relinquishes role as mediator|Demands Direct talks between Russia & Ukraine| Is peace possible?

In a major shift, the U.S. has stepped back from directly mediating Ukraine-Russia peace talks, urging both sides to present concrete proposals for ending the war. The move comes as President Trump grows frustrated with the lack of progress despite several meetings and major pro-Ukraine actions, including a $50 million arms package. With Crimea still a major sticking point, the U.S. withdrawal dims hopes for a near-term resolution. #UkraineRussiaWar #Trump #Crimea #PeaceTalks #USForeignPolicy #Putin #UkraineCrisis #MediationEnds #SteveWitkoff #USUkraine #DroneStrikes #RussiaUkraineConflict ~HT.410~GR.124~
