Political support for Kyiv from Paris
Three former French prime ministers — Dominique de Villepin (2005-2007), François Bayrou (2024-2025) and Gabriel Attal (2024) — voiced public support for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. This statement was a reaction to comments by Donald Trump, who had previously stated the need to change Ukraine's leadership.
As reported by Le Monde, the French politicians emphasised: «Зеленського не можна усувати» (Zelensky cannot be removed).
Criticism of agreements with Moscow
In addition to defending the Ukrainian leader, the former heads of the French government criticised the agreement between the US President and Vladimir Putin. This concerns a deal on the supply of Russian diesel fuel.
It is worth noting that Dominique de Villepin and Gabriel Attal intend to run in the next presidential elections in France.
