In February 2024, President Macron announced that if NATO considers providing support to Ukraine to help it defend against Russia, it should also think about sending soldiers.<\/p>\n
These words were openly rejected by some NATO member countries, indicating that this decision would lead the organization into an outright war with Russia.<\/p>\n
