Speaking at the end of the meeting, Macron warned: “There is a change in Russia’s stance. It is striving to take on further territory and it has its eyes not just on Ukraine but on many other countries as well, so Russia is presenting a greater danger.”

Among those present at the meeting were the German Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, the UK foreign secretary, Lord Cameron, the Polish president, Andrzej Duda, and the Dutch prime minister, Mark Rutte.

    Yes “refuse” is way stronger, and indicates it’s a strong opposition.

      in English, and especially UK newspaper reporting, “refuse” is also used to indicate that it’s something unexpected. I’m not sure that we can do away with sensationalist headlines without also banning all british news sources.

      Yeah I think you have a personal opinion on the matter that others don’t share.

      Aw angry downvotes. Someone’s sad they’re wrong :(

      Maybe read the room and figure out when you’re off base.
