President Emmanuel Macron will address the nation on Wednesday to outline France's position amid growing tensions over Ukraine – just hours before an EU summit on the conflict begins in Brussels. The move comes as Hungary's Viktor Orban visits Paris claiming some EU nations “want war", and nearly three-quarters of French people say the US is no longer an ally.
"In this moment of great uncertainty, where the world is confronted with its greatest challenges, I will address you tonight at 8pm," Macron said in a message posted on the social media platform X early Wednesday.
