honouring european unity. he has landed in france, off the plane and into a car and he is heading off for dinner with emmanuel macron and we are told he will be talking about the humanitarian support that france can offer and reaffirming the military support that president macron has already agreed to. we heard earlier he gave a speech in aachen in germany where he received this prize pot european union, where he called germany a true friend in the fight against russia. he was also in italy before that where he met prime minister giorgia meloni and she also said italy would support ukraine as long as necessary and he also got to meet the pope whilst in italy as well, who said he was praying for ukraine. a lot of promises for support in the last few days from germany and italy and this is exactly what president zelensky once, he wants to show russia that the international support he has been enjoying for the last few days is continuing and there is no sign of it waning ahead o

london as well and the french felt slightly embarrassed because they hadn t really done anything and they realised he was being received amid much fanfare in london so the hastily arranged meeting in paris. but already by then things work much better and i don t think we should read too much into any signal that they are not allies. i think both sides feel a page has been turned and that now the focus is a shared one, ensuring a clear ukrainian victory. one, ensuring a clear ukrainian victo . ~ . ~ one, ensuring a clear ukrainian victo . ~ ., ~ ., victory. we talked earlier about the conversations victory. we talked earlier about the conversations that victory. we talked earlier about the conversations that macron - victory. we talked earlier about the conversations that macron had - victory. we talked earlier about the conversations that macron had with president putin initially. has he now stopped talking to putin? is that very much in the past? yes. now stopped talking to putin?
