Telephone conversation ends with intrigue: Macron accuses Kremlin of foul play – “Baroque and threatening”. “We must work together with everyone affected by terrorism.

And if we have information, to have a technical exchange, I think that is our responsibility,” pleaded Macron. French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu and his Russian counterpart Sergei Shoigu spoke by telephone on Wednesday for the first time in a year and a half. The French press release about the conversation stated that Ukraine would be supported “as long and as intensively as necessary” according to the Russian Defense Ministry.
