French President Emmanuel Macron told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on a phone call that he "emphasized the importance of all parties respecting the current truce," according to a post on X, APA reports citing BBC.
Macron said that France and Israel share the same goal of ensuring that Iran never acquires a nuclear weapon.
"To ensure this over time, I stressed the need to return to negotiations—on both nuclear and ballistic issues," he wrote.
Macron added: "I reiterated to the prime minister the absolute necessity of establishing a ceasefire in Gaza."
"The release of all hostages, large-scale access for humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip, and the pursuit of a political two-state solution remain top priorities."
