French President Emmanuel Macron urged countries to resist a return to the “law of the jungle” in his final UN General Assembly address as France's leader – defending international rules as he called for action on Gaza and Ukraine, climate change, artificial intelligence and the effects of social media on children.
“The question put to us, in very simple terms, is whether we want to live in this state of nature, with a kind of return to the law of the jungle, or in a civilised international society,” Macron told the assembly on Tuesday.
