French President Emmanuel Macron said in an interview with several European media outlets on February 9 that France has reestablished dialogue channels with Russia on a “technical level” and hopes Europe can propose a joint plan for negotiations with Russia. Macron also stated that the perceived “easing” of threats from the United States toward Europe in areas such as Greenland, trade, and other aspects should not be mistaken for a “lasting shift” in tensions between the two sides. The “threats and intimidation” from the U.S. will continue. He emphasized that Europe cannot blindly compromise with the U.S., as such compromises will only deepen Europe’s strategic dependence on America. (CCTV International News)
