French President Emmanuel Macron has made an important statement regarding support for Ukraine. During recent discussions, he emphasized that the European Union will not leave the Ukrainian people alone in their fight for independence. This confirms the intention of European leaders to continue assisting our state.
A key issue was the discussion of Kyiv's request for the allocation of $70 billion for defense needs. Emmanuel Macron promised that European partners would examine this request in detail.

Support from European partners remains critically important for Ukraine. Macron's promise indicates that the issue of Ukraine's defense budget is on the agenda at the highest level in Europe. Ukrainians are awaiting concrete decisions that will help ensure the country's security in the future.
