00:00 The leaders of Poland, Germany and France will meet in Berlin on Friday to discuss
00:04 their support for Ukraine, while European countries are seeking to overcome their divergence
00:09 on the subject.
00:10 Troops on the ground, long-range missiles, mounting aid to Kiev.
00:15 The divergences have multiplied between France and Germany.
00:19 The two leaders, Olaf Scholz and Emmanuel Macron, will meet on Friday, March 15 in Berlin
00:24 for a meeting on aid to Ukraine placed under the sign of appeasement.
00:27 The French president and the German chancellor will not have too much head-to-head planned
00:31 in the middle of the day to lift the misunderstandings after their exchanges in Serbia, which followed
00:35 the support conference in Ukraine organized at the Elysée on February 26.
00:39 Their meeting at the Chancellery on Friday will be followed by a meeting with the Polish
00:43 Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
00:45 The entry of Warsaw is welcome, emphasizes the expert Nikolange, researcher associated
00:50 with the Munich Conference on Security.
00:53 Former president of the European Council, he has the habit of combining contradictory
00:57 interests.
00:58 He is able to appease the different, estimates Nikolange.
01:02 "The summit on Friday is a good sign that shows that things are getting going
01:06 and that mistakes may be corrected," advances Nikolange.
01:10 Dissonances between Paris and Berlin.
01:13 Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski says he is confident about what this summit
01:18 can represent A3.
01:19 "Internal pressure from the German coalition and international pressure on Chancellor
01:24 Scholz encourages more action," he estimates in an interview published on Thursday by
01:28 the quotidien West France.
01:30 The three leaders must also round the corners before an important European summit in Brussels
01:35 on March 21 and 22.
01:37 At the end of February, the statements of the head of the French state around the possible
01:41 sending of troops to Ukraine have raised the trouble.
01:43 Such a possibility has been categorically rejected by Olaf Scholz.
01:48 The dissonances had risen sharply the following week when Emmanuel Macron estimated in Prague
01:52 that Europe was entering a time when it would be better not to be cowardly.
01:55 And the French president insisted Thursday evening by stating that those who set
02:00 limits on commitment to support Ukraine do not make the choice of peace but make the
02:03 choice of defeat.
02:04 The German leader, who fears the escalation of the conflict, is criticized by several
02:09 of his allies and within himself of his majority for his refusal to deliver long-range missiles
02:13 because their setting would require, according to him, the intervention of German soldiers.
02:18 "This should not happen with German soldiers as chancellors, I have the responsibility
02:24 to prevent Germany from participating in this war," he reaffirmed Wednesday in front of
02:28 the Bundestag.
02:29 "Carefulness should not be qualified as weakness, as some do."
02:34 Olaf Scholz keeps repeating that Germany is the largest European contributor in absolute
02:38 value of financial and military aid to Kiev, far ahead of France.
02:42 A strategy influenced by the proximity of the European elections.
02:46 In the approach to the meeting, the diplomatic talk is already on time, Olaf Scholz assured
02:51 Wednesday that he had a very good personal relationship with Emmanuel Macron, while
02:55 experts regularly emphasize the differences in character and political style between
02:59 the German with the prudent nature and his French counterpart, adept of blows of lightning.
03:03 The approach of the European elections interferes in the strategy of the two leaders, attentive
03:08 to their public opinions.
