French President Emmanuel Macron on Monday deemed the United States' decision to authorize Ukraine to use long-range missiles in Russia “completely good”, on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro. At the same time, Russian strikes continue. At least ten people were killed and 44 others injured Monday by a Russian strike on the southern Ukrainian port city of Odessa. Another strike carried out by a drone targeted the Sumy region, bordering Russia, causing seven victims, including a child.
Isabelle Lasserre, diplomatic correspondent for Le Figaro:
“90% of wars end with negotiation. This negotiation, which looks so bad for the Ukrainians, could have turned out very well if Europe had realized the power of what was happening and was up to it. of its promises and its values.

Camille Grand, former deputy secretary general of NATO:
“In Vladimir Putin's mind, this head was supposed to last three days. After 1,000 days, we can clearly see the heroic resistance of the Ukrainians.
