la france, still trying to be relevant on the international stage...

Resolving the Russia-Ukraine conflict will not be quick or easy and will require Kiev to face the issue of territory, French President Emmanuel Macron has warned.

Speaking to an annual conference of ambassadors at the Elysee Palace on Monday, Macron addressed a number of global issues, including the conflict between Moscow and Kiev.

“The Ukrainians need to hold a realistic discussion on the territorial questions and only they can do that,” the French president said.
“The United States of America has to help us change the nature of the situation and convince Russia to come to the negotiating table,” while the European members of NATO have the responsibility to craft security guarantees for Ukraine, Macron added.

While no specific peace proposal has been made public, rumors in the media have suggested that US President-elect Donald Trump intends to propose a ceasefire that would “freeze” the conflict along the current front line. Some Western governments have sought to handle Kiev’s expected objections to this by offering Ukraine security guarantees, while stopping short of NATO membership.

The French president also warned that there is “no quick and easy solution” in Ukraine, even though Trump has pledged to end the conflict swiftly once he takes office.

Continued support for Kiev is vital for the “credibility” of the West, which would be “undermined” by any compromises brought about by “Ukraine fatigue,” Macron told the diplomats in Paris.

“The new American president himself knows that the US has no chance of winning anything if Ukraine loses,”Macron said, adding that “capitulation of Ukraine cannot be good for Europeans and Americans.”

Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky has outlawed any talks with Russia so long as President Vladimir Putin is in office and has insisted on a “peace platform” that would see a unilateral Russian withdrawal from all territories claimed by Kiev, payment of reparations, and war crimes prosecutions.

Moscow has dismissed Zelensky’s proposal as delusional. Russia’s terms for ending the hostilities insist on Ukraine becoming neutral, demilitarized and “denazified,” while accepting the “new territorial realities”on the ground and guaranteeing all the rights of ethnic Russians and Russian-speakers. Any peace will also require the removal of all Western sanctions on Russia as well, the Kremlin has said.

Ten Ukrainian tanks destroyed in Kursk Region – Russian MOD
Kiev’s latest advance into the country has been stopped, the MOD has said

 

Russian forces have crushed Kiev’s latest attempt to expand its military foothold in the Kursk Region, destroying ten Ukrainian tanks along with several other armored vehicles in a counteroffensive, the Defense Ministry has said. 

In a statement on Monday, military officials in Moscow said Russian troops “continue to rout the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ formations in the Kursk Region.”

According to the ministry, the Ukrainian advance focused on the town of Bolshoye Soldatskoye, and Russian forces have destroyed Kiev’s main strike group with the support of the Air Force and artillery.

In the past 24 hours, the Ukrainian military has lost a total 485 troops, ten tanks, seven infantry fighting vehicles, five armored personnel carriers, an artillery gun, an electronic warfare system and multiple other vehicles in Kursk Region, the statement reads.

In a separate briefing on Sunday, the Russian Defense Ministry said Ukrainian forces had launched the assault earlier that day in the hope of “stopping the advance of Russian troops.”

Ukrainian troops crossed into the internationally recognized Russian territory in early August 2024. The leadership in Kiev stated that the incursion was meant to divert Moscow’s forces from elsewhere along the front line. However, Russia’s offensive in Donbass has continued unabated, with the area under Ukrainian control in Kursk Region also shrinking considerably since then.

According to the Russian Defense Ministry’s estimates, since the start of its operation, Kiev has lost nearly 50,000 servicemen, 273 tanks, 209 infantry fighting vehicles, 153 armored personnel carriers, and hundreds of other pieces of equipment, including 13 US-supplied HIMARS multiple rocket launchers.

During his end-of-year press conference last month, Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed confidence that Ukrainian troops will “undoubtedly” be driven out of Kursk Region.
