Macron: deprivation is the ‘price of freedom’

France’s President Emmanuel Macron has appealed to the willingness of citizens to pay the „price of freedom“ in the face of the economic consequences of the sanctions policy. The French people need „strength of soul“ to resist „uncertainty, sometimes comfort and adversity, and to accept together to pay the price of our freedom and values,“ he said Friday evening at a World War II commemoration in the southern French town of Bormes-les-Mimosas.
