LIVE: Russian Foreign Ministry gives statement amid Ukraine crisis
Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova holds weekly briefing.
President Macron suggested that France could extend its nuclear deterrent to cover other EU nations as he warned that the continent must prepare to face the threat of Russia without the US.
The French president made the suggestion in a televised address to the nation on Wednesday, delivered as “we are entering a new era” after President Trump’s election.
France has an independent nuclear deterrent of fewer than 300 warheads designed to protect the country’s vital interests. Although the doctrine is deliberately vague, it is thought to include protection of the French population, territory and sovereignty. Macron is understood to be considering the extension of the notion of “vital interests” to Germany and other EU countries.
In his address, he said he would bring together military chiefs from countries “willing to guarantee the peace in Ukraine” in Paris to discuss Ukraine next week, while expressing confidence that the EU governments would back Brussels’ plan for an increase in defence spending of up to €800 billion at a meeting Thursday.

John Ratcliffe, the CIA director, said the US was ready to work with Ukraine again after it paused the sharing of military intelligence and suspended military aid.
Speaking to Fox Business, Ratcliffe said that a conciliatory statement released by Zelensky yesterday showed that he was ready to discuss a ceasefire with Putin.
“President Zelensky put out a statement that said: ‘I am ready for peace, and I want President Donald Trump’s leadership to bring about that peace,’” Ratcliffe said. “And so I think on the military front and the intelligence front, the pause that allowed that to happen, I think will go away, and I think we’ll work shoulder to shoulder with Ukraine, as we have, to push back on the aggression that’s there.”
Zelensky also wrote to Trump ahead of the US president’s address to a joint session of Congress agreeing to “come to the negotiating table” to strike a peace deal.
