Neue Zürcher Zeitung (NZZ): Macron's gift to the Russian authorities

The French Presidential Declaration addressed to Moscow could be a signal of strategic dialogue and a call to Berlin to take action.
Neue Zrcher Zeitung points out that Russian officials understand that the North Atlantic Alliance will not disappear and that reforms are not foreseen. So the Macron Declaration only made Moscow "happy", and no one else.

"As for Macron, we knock on an open door and there is no dilemma"

This is the opinion of the Director of the Center for Globalization, Dejan Miletic.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic is meeting with Macron, from whom, as he announced, he will seek support for "mini-Schengen", as well as answer to the question of what the future of the region is when it comes to European integration.

Reactions to Macron's statements: "He used rather harsh vocabulary"

Merkel commented on Emanuel Macron's statement that NATO was undergoing a "brain death."
"NATO remains the cornerstone of our security," Merkel said at a news conference with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg in Berlin.
Stoltenberg also rejected Macron's description of NATO, Reuters reports.
