FfFfFfFF 58,062 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 The filmed exchange took place on February 20, four days before the war. Mr. Lagache followed the almost two-hour-long interview from the office of the head of the diplomatic cell of the Élysée, Emmanuel Bonne. He recorded as Mr. Macron tried to push Mr. Putin to an agreement "in principle" to meet with Joe Biden in Geneva. The film includes nine riveting minutes in which the Russian president explained that the Ukrainian government "is not democratically elected" but the result of a "bloody coup d'état" during which "people were burned alive," and for which Volodymyr Zelensky "is one of those responsible." Mr. Putin said it was "always a lot of pleasure" to speak with Mr. Macron, including from his gym, and made some promises. Behind the scenes, Mr. Bonne warned Mr. Lagache that the Russian president "always lies." In fact, the meeting between the Russian and American presidents never took place. With excerpts from this call having been published in the last few days across various media, the Russian agency took offense and stated on Twitter that "for a long time the French have not respected the diplomatic rules of negotiations."

Benji 20,113 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Of all the world leaders I’d be interested hearing speak to Putin, Macron has got to be very low down the list. He’s an appeaser. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

berlinforme 5,385 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Am I the only one finding it a bit weird to have the content of such 'important' or at least high-profile diplomatic negotiations revealed in a documentary? Did they at least get an Apple TV+ exclusive deal? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
