French President Emmanuel Macron wants to force Ukraine to make concessions to Russia on a major peace deal designed to bring an end to fighting in the Donbass, Kiev’s former foreign minister has claimed.
Speaking as part of an appearance on TV channel NASH on Wednesday, Pavel Klimkin, who served as the nation’s top diplomat from 2014-2019, set out his view following a recent summit between the French leader and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
“Macron, of course, would like to ‘bend us over’ on some compromises of the Minsk agreements,” he argued. “But it doesn’t matter, because the accords will never work.”
According to the former diplomat, the deals could never function properly because they “lost their substance after [Russian President Vladimir] Putin launched mass passportization in the occupied territories.”
