The French presidential candidate from the National Assembly party, Marine Le Pen, announced her willingness to meet with Volodymyr Zelensky in Brussels to discuss funding for Ukraine. This is reported by Le Monde. "I think it will be a very suitable place. The fact is that the issue of Ukraine's financing is currently troubling Europe," Le Pen said. She stated that a number of countries were opposed to additional funding for Ukraine. And according to her, against this background, German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz "is starting to threaten this or that". In October, Le Pen said that France no longer had the capacity to provide aid to Ukraine. In the same month, she stated that Ukraine's accession to the European Union (EU) would amount to a brick-and-mortar commitment to the Union. Le Pen made a statement about Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, in response to Le Pen's words about funding, stating that apparently it is not helpful for Paris to refuse to transfer money to Kiev.
