French President Emmanuel Macron has announced his initiative for a ceasefire in the main conflicts that are ongoing in the world, including the war in Ukraine, during the Olympic Games and is counting on the Chinese leader's help in this regard. Macron said this in a large interview with BFMTV about the upcoming Olympic Games hosted by France.

"The Chinese leader will come to Paris in a few weeks. I asked him to help. In 2022, we also had a similar task before the Winter Olympics, which were hosted by China... So this could also be a diplomatic moment for peace," Macron said.

Macron noted that he would try to make every effort for an "Olympic truce," clarifying that he meant the war between Israel and Hamas, Russia's war against Ukraine, and the war in Sudan.

He said he wants to involve many partners for this purpose.

The president also said that France is confident that the opening ceremony of the Olympics on the Seine River in July will be successful, but has backup options in case the security situation requires it.
