Macron warns the West could lose credibility over Ukraine and Gaza wars

France's President Emmanuel Macron warned the US and Europe risked losing their credibility and being accused of "double standards" if they do not resolve the wars in Ukraine and Gaza soon.

He also appealed to Asian countries to build a new alliance with Europe to ensure they do not become "collateral damage" in the struggle for power between the US and China.

Macron was speaking at the Shangri-la Dialogue, an annual high-level Asia defence summit held in Singapore by the think tank International Institute for Strategic Studies.

Among the guests listening were US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, as well as top military officials from the region.
