German Chancellor Olaf Scholz invited French President Emmanuel Macron and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk to Berlin on Friday to align their stance on supporting Ukraine.
The meeting, announced by Tusk late Tuesday after talks with US President Joe Biden at the White House, follows Macron’s suggestion that France wouldn’t rule out sending troops to Ukraine. The comments sparked pushback from several NATO allies and a public spat with Scholz over military aid to Kyiv.
