The Russian and French presidents have discussed the situation in the Middle East and Ukraine, the Kremlin press service has said

Russian President Vladimir Putin has spoken with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron by telephone, the Kremlin press service said on Tuesday. It is the first phone contact between the leaders since September 2022.

The conversation revolved around the situation in the Middle East, as well as the Ukraine conflict.

During the call, Putin told Macron that the Ukraine conflict was "a direct consequence of the policies pursued by Western states, which for many years ignored Russia's security interests," and had established an "anti-Russian bridgehead" in the country, the press service stated.
