French President Emmanuel Macron said on Thursday that all four European Union leaders present in Kyiv supported the idea of granting "immediate" EU candidate status to Ukraine.

Macron made the remarks at a news conference after meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv alongside German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi and Romanian President Klaus Iohannis.

France will deliver six additional CAESAR long-range guns to Ukraine, Macron said.
