According to the French President on Tuesday, progress has been made regarding security and stability in the region following his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Russian President Vladimir Putin met Monday with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron in Moscow to discuss the Ukrainian crisis and the issue of security guarantees.

In addition, Macron met with the Ukrainian President on Tuesday. In a press conference in Kyiv, he expressed that meetings with both presidents "made it possible to make progress in building stability and security in the region," divulging that he expects a de-escalation in Ukraine after the Russian President assured him an escalation is not on the table.

The US and several Western allies have long been accusing Russia of preparing for a military invasion of Ukraine and amassing 100,000 troops on the borders with its western neighbor, but both Kyiv and Moscow have been denying the ordeal for months.
