VILNIUS (Reuters) – French President Emmanuel Macron insisted on Monday that Europe should cooperate with Russia to build peace in Europe, despite calls among European Union peers to review his stance towards Moscow after the poisoning of a Russian opposition leader.
“The way we see things is that if we want to build peace on the European continent, we need to work with Russia,” Macron said in a news conference with his Lithuanian counterpart.
