Sach of shit.

"Press TV (stylised as PRESSTV) is an Iranian state-owned news media organisation, owned by Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB)" (wikipedia)

I would strongly suggest that the report is far more likely to be an outright lie, than Macron is to have said any such thing.

You should actually read before commenting.
The source is Jeffrey Sachs, not the Iranians.
Iranians and Indian news simply reported on recent Sachs interview to inalian news where he named Macron as the one.

So Trump has chickened out again on sanctions.

https://www.cnbc.com/2025/09/13/trump-russia-nato-putin-trade-sanctions-.html

His only accomplishment this term has been to destroy the rose garden and to gold plate the fixtures in the White House.

Actually it was EU who chickened out. Trump told them "After you!"

DONT ARGUE WITH FATTO!!
(Unless you like sleeping with the fishes!)

This is what the link actually said:

This was stated by Sachs during a debate on international relations.

"Macron awarded me the Legion of Honor and said privately what he does not say publicly: the war is NATO's fault. I want to be known about it, because it's outrageous," said the American economist.

The publication also notes that Sachs criticized US President Donald Trump and the European Union for "cultivating Russophobia, but people are tired of conflicts."

Trump is "cultivating Russophobia"???

Macron was not present when Sachs was awarded. The award was given by the French ambassador in the embassy in New York. The link includes a photograph of the attendees. No Macron and Macron is not even mentioned.

Try harder.

I did not come across any such news in India. But there are hundreds of news, media, TV sites. Some may have reported that.
But, IMHO, most well-informed Indians think that NATO was/is involved in the crisis.
Yesterday or today, I read that Macron will prove in US that his wife is not a man.

Will be good to see Candance Owens lose that lawsuit! Sure, blame Nato. Blame nuland. Russia blames everyone. Who cares? I want to stop the killing. And I want to prevent future war. Russia wants continuous war. They stated yesterday that they'd consider any non-Russian peacekeepers and enemy combatants and fair game. They want continuous war. Is that really okay with India? At some point, all countries are going to have to decide are we for continuous war; or peace.

Like the pathetic Russian Army, he is already trying as hard as he can, and utterly failing.

The Iranian media are lying sachs of shit.

See what I did there?

How does our wants matter? At the moment, only Putin can end the war. Trump has tried his best to stop war and get a Nobel Prize.
War is never OK with us, Modi has made it clear many a times. But ending war is not in our hands.
At the same time, oil from Russia and developing Chabahar port is our geo-political necessity.

Well, he did award him that (President's decision) And he did tell him that privately later when Jeffrey met him in Europe.

So, try harder.
