French president rules out any lifting of sanctions and says European forces could be deployed to mark ‘clear support’
Leaders from some 30 countries – not just from Europe, but beyond, including Turkey and Canada – are meeting in Paris to firm up their previous discussions about what “the coalition of the willing” could do to help Ukraine in case of a US-negotiated ceasefire or peace agreement.
Convened by French president Emmanuel Macron, the leaders are expected to hold further talks about the format of any future security guarantee they could offer to Ukraine, but also to coordinate on current issues being discussed in the US-led negotiations, including the contentious Russian demand to relax existing sanctions.
