Macron said that France is now ‘living through a tipping point or great upheaval’.

“We will have to face the economic consequences. We are talking about products and technologies that seemed to us always available,” he said.

According to him, this is due to the drought in Europe, which may be declared the worst in the last 500 years, and the situation in Ukraine. Speaking of the latter, Macron stressed that ‘freedom has a cost’ and it must be paid.

Earlier, the French leader called for abandoning any compromises with Russia while some Frenchmen did not like such statements.
