PARIS, Nov. 11-- French President Emmanuel Macron on Sunday called on world leaders, gathering in Paris to join a global tribute to soldiers killed during World War I, to promote multilateral policy and to avoid the errors that led to the outbreak of the grinding conflict in 1914-1918. Hosting the inaugural Paris Peace Forum, Macron said: "Our predecessors have tried to build a lasting peace. It's smashed by the unilateralism of some, economic crises and nationalism." "The world we live in is threatened by crises that destabilize our societies: ... migrants' challenge, cyber crime and others. And we are undermined by the resurgence of sad passions, the passions of racism, anti-Semitism," he told the gathering. |
