Macron Does Not Rule Out Deploying Troops to Ukraine as He Rallies Support for Kyiv
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

French President Emmanuel Macron is leading a European effort to send
more arms to Ukraine. These will include more middle- and long-range
missiles. Macron also did not rule out eventually sending French or
other Western troops to Ukraine. He spoke Monday at a Paris conference
of 20 European leaders.

President Emmanuel Macron: "Everything was discussed in a free and
direct manner tonight. There was no consensus today to send troops onto
the ground in a manner that's official, assumed and endorsed. But on the
dynamic, nothing should be excluded. We will do everything so that
Russia cannot win this war."
