France accuses Russia of trying to divide allies with attack on Ukrainian convoy

RTP Notícias14 September 2026 at 11:10

French diplomacy accused Russia today of carrying out attacks over the weekend against a Ukrainian humanitarian convoy near the border between Ukraine and Poland. According to the French government, the objective of these attacks was to intimidate and divide the allied countries that support Kyiv.

France expressed its unequivocal support for Ukraine at this time of conflict. The Élysée reaffirmed France's commitment to continue providing assistance to the country affected by the Russian invasion.

This is not the first time Russia has been accused of targeting civilian infrastructure in Ukraine. The attacks have generated repeated international condemnation, especially when they involve areas near borders with NATO member countries.

The situation on the border between Ukraine and Poland remains tense, with Western allies closely monitoring developments. The international community continues to press for a peaceful resolution of the conflict.

Why this matters

This accusation from France against Russia represents another episode of diplomatic escalation in the conflict between Moscow and the West, affecting the cohesion of Western allies in supporting Ukraine and potentially influencing future political and military decisions in the region.
