Europe will not be able to survive next winter without Russian gas, Macron said.
In an interview with Ouest-France, the French president noted that the EU is not discussing an embargo on hydrocarbon supplies from Russia:
“Today there are no solutions that allow us to completely replace the gas that we import from Russia with other suppliers.”
At the same time, he is convinced of the need to “strengthen sanctions and continue to put pressure on Russia, but at the same time make sure not to succumb to any escalation.”
Macron also acknowledged that France is already supplying Kyiv with several types of weapons, including Milan missile systems and Caesar self-propelled artillery mounts.
