MUNICH, Germany: Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot warned that Europe must brace for difficult decisions and unexpected sacrifices to address growing security threats.
"We need to prepare. We will have to face difficult days, make complicated decisions and even sacrifices which we weren't expecting until now to ensure this security," Barrot told reporters over the weekend.
His comments come amid rising concerns over geopolitical instability, including the ongoing war in Ukraine and broader tensions affecting Europe's defense posture.
Barrot also discussed his recent meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, noting that Washington has yet to finalize its stance on the Ukraine crisis. "The U.S. administration is still forming its opinion over how the U.S. should handle the Ukraine crisis," he said.
