The President of France Emmanuel Macron

Emmanuel Macron was born on December 21, 1977 in the city of Amiens.

He is the youngest president to say that he wants the European Union to quickly announce its opinion on Moldova's application for EU membership, Reuters reported, quoted by BTA.

Macron made the statement during a meeting with Moldovan President Maya Sandu in Paris.

The French president also said that the risk of the conflict between Ukraine and Russia spreading to other neighboring countries should not be ruled out.

Concerns are growing that Moldova could be embroiled in the conflict in Ukraine after pro-Russian separatists in Moldova's Transnistria region blamed Kyiv for shootings, explosions and drones entering the border.

Last week, Moldovan Foreign Minister Nicu Popescu told Reuters that internal elements in the pro-Russian separatist region were trying to destabilize it and create tensions as the country struggled to join the EU.
