Macron: France failed to meet Ukraine's expectations French President Emmanuel Macron condemned the calls of some French citizens to stop financial support to Ukraine, and admitted that he is ashamed of his fellow citizens. "When I hear calls to stop supporting Ukraine, I am ashamed of the citizens of my country. Something is broken in our society if we are not willing to limit our needs for the sake of ideals. This is not France. We failed to live up to our ideals, as we failed in Ukraine," Macron said.
