French President Emmanuel Macron has reaffirmed his commitment to deploying NATO troops in Ukraine, despite warnings from Russian President Vladimir Putin of a potential "World War 3" if the West intervenes. Macron's stance has received backing from Baltic nations, but Western allies have distanced themselves from Paris. The Kremlin has mocked Macron's remarks, asserting that NATO's involvement in Ukraine is already underway. Meanwhile, Macron held a "Weimar Triangle" meeting with Germany and Poland leaders to foster unity amid disagreements within the West. The United States, United Kingdom, and Germany consider NATO's direct involvement with Russia a "red line." Macron's advocacy for NATO intervention in Ukraine echoes his previous calls for European autonomy within NATO. France's role in coordinating EU aid to Ukraine contrasts with its lag in providing direct assistance compared to Germany, the UK, and the US. As the conflict escalates and Russia makes rapid advancements on the eastern front, uncertainty looms over Ukraine's defence capabilities and the global response, particularly amidst the upcoming US election year. The unfolding Russia-Ukraine war poses a significant threat to Europe, heightening concerns about the potential spillover of conflict. #russiaukrainewar #putin #framce #zelensky #biden #warupdates #pmmodionputin #russianatoconflict #hindinews #russia #putin #ukraine Subscribe to The Times of India's YouTube channel: http://goo.gl/WgIatu For daily news & updates and exclusive stories, follow the Times of India Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TimesofIndia Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timesofindia/ Download the app: http://toi.in/3SLUCa80 Follow the TOI WhatsApp channel: https://bit.ly/3RYl0J9 Follow TOI+ for well-researched and in-depth news and analysis Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/timesofindiaplus Twitter: https://twitter.com/TOIPlus Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/toi_plus/
