French President Emmanuel Macron said that France and Britain will launch a workshop to coordinate security guarantees for Ukraine with the involvement of the United States. 
He made the remarks after a video conference of about 30 countries in the "Coalition of the Willing," joined by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. 

Macron said the coming days would be used to define the contributions of the parties ready to provide guarantees once a ceasefire is reached. 

France and other European Union members are also working on a plan to provide financial support for Ukraine, Macron said. 

Earlier on Tuesday, Macron told the RTL broadcast that France could consider sending troops to Ukraine as part of "reassurance forces" alongside British and Turkish units after a ceasefire. However, he stressed that "the first security guarantee" for Ukraine remains the Ukrainian army.

Paris, 9th October 2025 
 
Outgoing French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu said Wednesday night that President Emmanuel Macron is expected to appoint a new prime minister within the next 48 hours.

"I feel that a path forward is possible," Lecornu told TV channel France 2, adding that the current situation allows the president to proceed with the appointment. 
"It's up to him to conduct the final consultations," Lecornu said. 

Amid calls from opposition parties for Macron to call early presidential elections to end political deadlock, Lecornu said it was "not the time to change the president." 
He added that Macron would address the nation "in due course." 

Lecornu also addressed several major policy issues, saying that a "path should be found" to resume debate on pension reform. He warned that suspending the reform would cost at least 3 billion euros (3.5 billion U.S. dollars) in 2027.

Speaking about the draft budget for 2026, Lecornu said it could be presented to the cabinet next Monday. He noted that the plan "will not be perfect" and would require extensive debate. 
Lecornu resigned on Monday, less than a month after being appointed by Macron, and one day after unveiling part of his cabinet lineup.
