Emmanuel Macron calls for de-escalation in the Middle East
“The uncontrolled escalation we are witnessing is plunging the entire region into chaos with serious consequences both today and for years to come. The people of Iran and the entire region are paying the price for this“- added Macron.
He further noted: “Only a new political and security framework can ensure peace and security for all. Such an order must ensure that Iran never acquires nuclear weapons and must also take into account the threats posed by its ballistic missile program and destabilizing activities in the region and internationally.”
