He also said that the war on Iran does not provide a “lasting solution to the nuclear issue,” and a military operation to ‘liberate’ the Strait of Hormuz is ‘unrealistic.

“Six months ago, we were told everything had been destroyed and settled. Clearly, that was not the case.

Without international inspectors verifying materials, research, and hidden sites, it is simply not serious.

There will always be expertise and potentially hidden facilities unless there is lasting oversight.

A few weeks of military strikes cannot resolve the nuclear issue in the long term.

Without a diplomatic and technical agreement, the situation could deteriorate again in months or years.

The same logic applies to ballistic capabilities — they must be monitored through negotiation.”

Macron also says President Trump is “contradicting” himself every day on Iran.
