French President Emmanuel Macron sounded a global alarm on Thursday after the EU summit in Brussels. He noted that while recent U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities have been "genuinely effective," the worst-case scenario would be an exit by Iran from the global Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
Macron stressed that such an exit would deal a heavy blow to global nuclear security, potentially triggering a dangerous drift and a collective weakening of efforts to limit nuclear weapons spread.
To address the escalating tensions, Macron announced plans to speak with the five members of the United Nations Security Council in the coming days. A recent call with President Donald Trump further underscored the urgency of engaging in dialogue over Tehran's recent nuclear activities.
In a time when international stability is more crucial than ever, Macron's call for a convergence of views reflects his determination to prevent any resumption of nuclear buildup. The message is clear: maintaining dialogue and cooperation is key to safeguarding global peace. ⚠️
