Macron kissed Zelensky at the end of his visit to Kyiv.

Removing the association of the Ukrainian president with Putin

French President Emmanuel Macron decided to cease any communication with the Russian leader after the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation into Ukraine. He now supports and actively communicates with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

We have become true friends over the past years, communicating almost every day, - shared Macron.

This friendship between the leaders began even before Zelensky was elected president. The French president was captivated by the history and style of his Ukrainian counterpart, and they grew close during recent events.

Macron actively uses his diplomatic contacts to assist Zelensky in effective governance and support for the Ukrainian resistance. Their joint efforts help address important issues and aid in resolving the conflict.

During the visit to Ukraine, leaders from other countries who support the independence and security of our state were also present. They stood as a united team, ready to support Ukrainians in their fight for freedom and peace.
