According to the Russian Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, French President Emmanuel Macron is “overflowing with hatred” towards Russia.

On Wednesday, according to TF1-LCI, Sergei Lavrov targeted the French head of state during a press conference in Yerevan (Armenia). “President Macron himself, along with all his ministers, are simply overflowing with hatred towards Russia, describing it as the only obstacle to a solution in Ukraine,” declared the Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs.

He added: “And by ‘solution’, they mean only one thing: an unconditional ceasefire for a month or more, so that they can calmly arm Ukraine and allow it to strengthen its defensive positions.”
