00:00French President Emmanuel Macron warned the US they risk a dangerous double standard as they
00:08concentrate on a potential conflict with China if that shift comes at the cost of abandoning
00:14Ukraine. He warned that leaving Ukraine would eventually erode US credibility in
00:21deterring potential conflict with Taiwan. Our key challenge is how to preserve peace and stability
00:29and prosperity in this current environment and in a moment when the competition between China and
00:37the United States for global leadership could create constraints and a side effect for each of us.
00:43Speaking at the Shangri-La dialogue in Singapore notable was the fact that the speech was delivered
00:52with US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in the audience. Macron's remarks come as the US considers
01:00withdrawing troops from Europe to shift them to the Indo-Pacific.
