Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke with French President Emmanuel Macron about efforts to bring the war in Ukraine to an end.

According to Ukrinform, Zelensky said this in his Facebook post.

“I spoke with President of France Emmanuel Macron. Now is the right moment to push the situation toward ending the war, and the most important thing is to fully seize every opportunity and apply the right kind of pressure on Russia. Pressuring the one who started the war is the key to a denouement,” Zelensky said.
