French President Emmanuel Macron on Wednesday warned Russia was still showing a "desire for war" despite efforts to forge a ceasefire in Ukraine, ahead of a summit aimed at boosting Ukrainian security under a potential truce.
Macron is on Thursday to welcome European leaders alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to agree what security guarantees Europe can offer Ukraine once a ceasefire deal is reached in the more than three-year-old war.
