US President Biden spoke by phone with Macron after his conversation with Putin

US President Joe Biden spoke by phone with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron, according to the White House website. The conversation took place after Macron’s conversation with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

“They are [президенты США и Франции] discussed diplomatic and deterrence efforts in response to Russia’s military buildup near the border with Ukraine.

Putin, during a conversation with his French counterpart, called the provocations of the Ukrainian security forces the reason for the escalation of the situation in Donbass and drew attention to the “pumping” of Ukraine by NATO countries with weapons, which, in his opinion, is pushing Kiev towards a military solution to the conflict. “As a result, civilians of the DPR and LPR suffer, who have to evacuate to Russia to escape from the intensifying shelling,” the Kremlin’s press service quoted the head of state as saying. The President pointed out that Kiev “only imitates the negotiation process”, not wanting to comply with the Minsk agreements.

The Elysee Palace, in turn, reported that Macron and Putin agreed to organize a meeting of the trilateral contact group on Ukraine “in the next few hours.”
