French President Emmanuel Macron has emphasized the need to rethink Europe’s relationship with Russia and create a new form of European organization after the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Macron’s remarks, reported by media outlets, underline the need for a fundamental shift in the continent’s geopolitical landscape.
“We will have to think about a new form of European organization and review our relations with Russia after the ongoing war in Ukraine,” Macron said.
The French president pointed out that Europe will face a new reality post-conflict, necessitating the development of a more inclusive and equitable international order. Macron criticized the current system as
“incomplete and unfair,” arguing that it was designed in the aftermath of World War II and no longer addresses modern challenges.
Macron, who is set to attend the upcoming UN General Assembly, expressed his intent to further discuss these ideas at the international forum. He advocated for reforms in global institutions like the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund, stressing that no single country should have the power to block others and that nations should be fairly represented in these bodies.
“This is undoubtedly the biggest challenge of today,” Macron said, highlighting the urgency of establishing a fairer global order.
