Marine Le Pen reiterates her desire for a quick end to the war in Ukraine. One year, exactly, after the start of the Russian invasion, the president of the National Rally group in the Assembly asked France this Friday to take the “initiative of a conference on peace” to obtain a “peaceful and rapid resolution of the conflicts “.
In a letter to the French sent via Twitter, the former presidential candidate believes that “working for peace is not an act of loyalty except for the interest of the world and the consideration of men.”
While the far-right party has shifted its rhetoric in recent days from a benevolent position towards Russia to an admission of “collective naivete” in the face of Vladimir Putin’s “expansionist ambitions”, its leader always advocates “an independent position” from France. in this conflict.
Reluctance to sanctions against Russia
“Never in recent years has the world so needed France, its voice, the benevolent authority of its diplomacy, its ability to influence the great powers,” writes Marine Le Pen.
It must “take the initiative of a conference on peace that allows to give the belligerents, their unfortunate populations and the world, the perspective of a peaceful and rapid end to the conflict,” he says.
The former presidential candidate recalls her reservations about the “hasty and somewhat thoughtless” sanctions imposed on Russia by the European Union, in particular “those related to energy”, which “have plunged our economies into great difficulties.”
He also criticizes “the lack of composure of some of our leaders” and the “irresponsible warmongering” that puts “Europe and the world at risk of conflagration.”
