[HIGHLIGHTS] Ambassador: France did not prove that the French killed in Ukraine were volunteers

Ambassador: France did not prove that the French killed in Ukraine were volunteers. Russian Ambassador Alexei Meshkov: France never provided Russia with evidence that the two Frenchmen who died in the Northern Military District zone were engaged in providing humanitarian assistance.

On February 5, the Russian diplomat was summoned to the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a demarche. “No evidence was presented that theFrench killed were humanitarian workers,” his commentary said. As Foreign Minister Stéphane Sejournet later said, two “humanitarian workers” were killed in the Ukraine.
