French President Emmanuel Macron dismissed Thursday as “ridiculous” Russia’s defense minister’s remarks suggesting Ukraine and France could had a role in last month’s deadly Moscow concert hall attack, APA reports citing Associated Press.
Macron said such comments “were indeed baroque and threatening, which is nothing new,” as he was speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the inauguration of a swimming pool built for the Paris Olympics in a northern suburb of Paris.
“In other words, it’s ridiculous,” Macron added.
“It makes no sense and doesn’t fit with reality” to say that France “could be behind it (the Moscow attack) and that the Ukrainians are behind it,” he said. “But it’s a manipulation of information, which is part of Russia’s arsenal of warfare today.”
