President Zelensky's upcoming meeting with President Macron in Paris is part of a strategic European tour aimed at reinforcing sanctions against Russia.

The discussions will center on increasing pressure on Russia's oil exports, specifically through measures targeting its 'shadow fleet' of tankers that facilitate evasion of existing sanctions.

This meeting underscores the ongoing efforts to coordinate European responses to Russia's actions and the need for robust infrastructure to monitor and enforce these sanctions effectively.
