Despite US President Donald Trump's ceasefire declaration, French President Emmanuel Macron has cautioned that the situation surrounding the Israel-Iran conflict remains "unstable", reinforcing the view that diplomacy should preside over military might in resolving the Middle East crisis.
"The situation clearly remains volatile and unstable. I think it's a very good thing that President Trump is calling for a ceasefire," Macron told reporters on Tuesday during a visit to Norway.
