REFILE-France's Macron tells Iran, US leaders that ceasefire decision was best choice

April 8 (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron said on Wednesday that he spoke with both Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, as well as with U.S. President Donald Trump, and told them their decision to accept a ceasefire was the best possible one.

"I expressed my hope that the ceasefire will be fully respected by each of the belligerents, across all areas of confrontation, including in Lebanon," Macron said in a post on X.

Macron added that any agreement between the countries must address the concerns raised by Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile programs, as well as its regional policy and its actions obstructing navigation through the Strait of Hormuz.
