French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday urged Asian countries to join the "increasing consensus" against the conflict in Ukraine, telling them the war was "your problem" too.
Macron told business leaders on the sidelines of a Pacific Rim summit that France was trying to "create an increasing consensus in order to say this war is also your problem, because it will create a lot of destabilisation".
Macron also urged an end to "confrontation" in Asia as he outlined his vision for France's engagement with the region. "We don't believe in hegemony, we don't believe in confrontation, we believe in stability," Macron told business leaders on the sidelines of an Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation summit.
