French President Emmanuel Macron plans to establish direct contact with Russia for peace talks.
"I want to be very clear: we can negotiate without the Europeans if we want, but that will not lead to peace at the negotiating table. This is precisely why I decided to establish a direct channel of communication with Russia in full transparency with Ukraine, our European partners, and our American allies," he said speaking at the Munich Security Conference in Germany on Friday.
