I'm citing one of the suggested presidential candidates, Melenchon, not Macron...

Of course, the more radical La France Insoumise (LFI) had to amend its discourse that painted Russia as a "more reliable partner than the United States," as the party's leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon said in 2020. After more than a year of war, they now advocate exploring negotiated paths out of the conflict. "The war in Ukraine must end. That's what we have to work on. It is a matter of diplomacy rather than artillery fire," wrote Mélenchon in December 2022.
