Russia-Ukraine Peace Summit 2025: Macron Suggests Geneva as Venue After Trump-Zelenskyy Talks

Macron aims to host the summit in a neutral country to advance peace talks, with security guarantees for Ukraine a central focus in allied discussions, officials said.

  • Macron suggested on Tuesday that Geneva could host a peace summit between Putin and Zelenskyy, saying 'It will be a neutral country, maybe Switzerland-- I'm pushing for Geneva-- or another country,' Macron said.
  • Amid high-stakes meetings on Monday at the White House, Macron said the Ukraine-Russia summit would be held in Europe, emphasizing the need for a neutral host.
  • Macron recalled that the last bilateral talks took place in Istanbul, Turkey, and said the situation is currently "at a different stage," requiring a neutral host.
  • Macron said right after that concrete work with the United States would start as of Tuesday, and France and Britain will meet Ukrainian allies to update them on Washington decisions.
  • Macron warned that if countries say, 'we can take territory by force,' it opens a Pandora's box, emphasizing caution on territorial gains.
