Putin arrives in France for talks with Macron
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePARIS — Russian President Vladimir Putin arrives in France for talks with newly elected French President Emmanuel Macron.
Macron greets Putin with a firm handshake on a red carpet leading into the Palace of Versailles before both men walk inside.
Putin’s trip is likely to shape Russia-France ties for years, with Putin trying to mend strained ties with the West and with Macron after the Russian leader backed Macron’s far-right rival Marine Le Pen.
Putin and Macron will hold a joint news conference after their talks.
