Macron has defended Trump's decision to recognize the state of Palestine
Israel The French President has stressed that an end to the offensive in the Gaza Strip requires a "political approach".
French President Emmanuel Macron has defended his decision to recognize the Palestinian state to US President Donald Trump last night and has advocated overlapping "political vision" to end Israel's offensive in the Gaza Strip.
"After almost two years of war, what is the result? The main leaders of Hamas have been killed. It is a great victory, but at the same time Hamas has as many fighters as on the first day. There is no point in dismantling Hamas. It is not the right course of action," Macron stressed.
Macron recalled that many French were killed by Hamas in the attacks of 7 October 2023. "President Trump is right: no one has forgotten what happened on 7 October," he said at a meeting in the context of the UN General Assembly.
On the other hand, Macron has assured us that France is working towards the end of the Israeli offensive. In this regard, he has stressed the need to release the hostages, agree to a ceasefire and increase humanitarian aid to Gaza.
