The "submarine crisis" between the United States and its oldest ally, France, has apparently come to an end following a conversation between the two leaders on Monday. The honors and that the French ambassador - who was returned to the French capital last weekend in protest of the deal - will return to the embassy in Washington next week.
The crisis has apparently come to an end, although the rage in Paris seems to be continuing in full force towards Australia and Britain, the other two countries for the strategic partnership that has been forged behind the French and has led to an invisible rift between Western countries.
The US announcement said the ambassador would return to the US to work "intensively with US officials". It is also possible that the parties will discuss the possibility of compensating France for the heavy losses to its defense industry following the new partnership between Australia, the US and UK.

times,
A White House statement said Macron and Biden would meet in October on European soil.
The parties stated in their announcement that "open talks between allies could have prevented the problems arising from the deal."
As you may recall, France is angry with the US, UK and Australia because the tripartite partnership between them was declared uncoordinated and will lead to the cancellation of a huge purchase contract between Canberra and Paris for Australian forces' equipment in French submarines. .
Immediately after the announcement, French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian called for a move behind the French backs "stabbing an ally in the back," and France also announced the cancellation of a glittering gala event scheduled to take place at the French embassy in Washington to mark the 240th anniversary of the Battle of Chesapeake , One of the famous battles of the American Revolutionary War, in which France actually paved the way for the victory of the colonies against the British Crown.
At the same time, France has returned the ambassadors from the United States and Australia, but as stated the ambassador to Washington will be returned in the coming days.
