PARIS — French President Emmanuel Macron condemns “a shameful and amoral act of war” after a Russian airstrike on a Mariupol maternity hospital.
Macron says he was deeply upset by images showing “lethal weapons have been used in an indiscriminate manner in the city center.”
He is speaking ahead of a summit of EU heads of state and government at the Versailles Palace, west of Paris.
Macron says “nothing justifies” what happened in Mariupol.
“I am very worried and pessimistic,” about the war in Ukraine, Macron says.
“I don’t see a ceasefire [being] realistic in the coming hours.”
