French President Emmanuel Macron said on Thursday that Paris will send forces and defense systems to Saudi Arabia to help protect the Red Sea city of Yanbu, a vital site for energy transport.
He added in an interview with channels (TF1) and (France 2), "This is the agreement we have made with the Saudis: we will send military resources - that is, soldiers, radar systems, and defense systems - to protect this site; not to engage in any conflicts, but to protect this site."
