President of France Emmanuel Macron said he planned to hold a meeting in Normandy Format before G20 summit scheduled for July 7–8 Hamburg. He said this in his interview for Figaro.
According to him, the negotiations in Normandy Format will allow him to better understand at what stage is the Minsk process.
“As far as the Ukrainian question is concerned, I will give you a clear answer after my first negotiations within the Normandy format. But it is absolutely certain that it is our duty to protect Europe and its allies in the region. On this issue, we should not deviate from our position, "he said.
Earlier it was reported that EU Summit will hear Merkel's and Macron's assessment on implementation of Minsk. German Chancellor and French President will also talk about the next steps of Brussels.
