What to know

  • Macron delivered this as his final UN General Assembly speech as France's president, framing it as a farewell warning against great-power impunity.
  • He linked three distinct proposals in one address: a Russia-Ukraine strikes moratorium, renewed pressure over Gaza aid access, and an independent open-source AI model.
  • His AI proposal directly contrasted with Trump's rejection of global AI regulation delivered in the same UN session hours earlier.
  • No confirmed response yet from Russia, Ukraine, Israel, or the US to Macron's specific moratorium and AI proposals.

“My message is to stand firm. Do not yield to the situation which is developing ... The rhetoric of defeat that is giving way to abuse of power by empires, threatening the sovereignty of some nations”
