Paris:
French President Emmanuel Macron said Wednesday that he would speak with Russian leader Vladimir Putin as long as was needed to persuade him to stop Russia’s war in Ukraine.
“I have chosen to remain in contact with President Putin for as long as I can, and for as long is necessary, to unstintingly seek to convince him to renounce violence… and to prevent the contagion and spreading of the conflict,” Macron said in a televised address.
