Macron in his last speech at the UN: Diplomacy must bring concrete results
Emmanuel Macron

Emmanuel Macron took to the podium of the United Nations General Assembly for the last time as President of France, focusing his speech on multilateral diplomacy and efforts to produce concrete results in a world engulfed by wars and energy crises.

Before the speech, French officials had declared that "the time for big structural speeches is over," signaling that Macron's intervention would focus on concrete actions.

The French presidency itself has acknowledged that the UN is “not in a good state,” with the Security Council often blocked by clashes between major powers. However, Macron continues to consider the organization as one of the main mechanisms for reaching agreements with international political and legal weight.

One of the main issues raised by France is the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz. Paris is working with the United States on an initiative in the Security Council, aimed at guaranteeing freedom of navigation and restoring a greater number of tankers and commercial ships in this strategic corridor.

The French approach aims to treat the situation in Hormuz separately from the broader negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program and conflicts in the region.

Macron has stated that he wants "results," while Paris' idea is that, even if a comprehensive agreement between the US and Iran remains difficult, a mechanism should be created that would allow for increased oil and goods flows.

The crisis in Hormuz has already affected international energy markets and prices, making the security of the maritime corridor an important issue for the European economy.

France has also expressed its willingness to help protect Saudi Arabia's critical energy infrastructure, including facilities in Yanbu and the East-West corridor. Paris has stressed that any involvement would be defensive and would not imply participation in the war with the Houthis.

Regarding Ukraine, Macron has reaffirmed French support for Kiev and the need to strengthen its air defenses.

After meetings in New York, the French president announced additional aid to Ukraine, including interceptors and new air defense systems, aimed at weathering the winter months.

At the same time, Macron has proposed a moratorium on attacks on energy infrastructure. The initiative would include not only Russian attacks on Ukrainian energy facilities, but also possible Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil and fuel facilities.

Paris aims to strengthen Ukraine's ability to defend itself, while at the same time limiting the consequences of the energy war on the European economy and creating space for negotiations.

Another important issue on Macron's agenda was Gaza and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

On September 22, 2025, France officially recognized the state of Palestine, as part of international efforts to support the two-state solution.

A year later, Paris assesses that the situation on the ground remains difficult. A sustainable political process for Gaza has not been established, while the situation in the West Bank has deteriorated.

The French position remains that a long-term solution requires a political horizon for the creation of two states.

Macron's appearance at the General Assembly was his last as President of France. He is in the final months of his second term and cannot seek a third consecutive term.

His focus in New York was on a stronger Europe, strategic autonomy, preserving transatlantic relations, and strengthening multilateral mechanisms.

For France, the crises in Hormuz, Ukraine and the Middle East show the difficulties facing the international system, but also the need for new cooperation mechanisms.

In this context, Macron has called for diplomacy to be transformed into concrete results, placing the UN at the center of efforts to address international conflicts and crises.
