Emmanuel Macron, the President of France, will convene party leaders on Thursday to discuss the "security guarantees" offered to Ukraine, especially in the context of a possible deployment of a multinational force. This meeting comes two days after the "Coalition of Will" summit in Paris, where allies promised military support for Ukraine. Macron mentioned that France could send "several thousand" soldiers to contribute to this force, emphasizing that they will not be engaged in combat but will act as a "reassurance force." Details about France's contribution will be presented, and a potential vote in Parliament may be necessary. All parties, including those critical of sending troops, are invited to participate. The opposition will take the opportunity to discuss other international issues, including France's position on international law.
