“I think we need to build a new architecture of trust and security in Europe, which is to clarify our relations with Russia,” Macron said.

He noted that without the participation of European countries, bilateral agreements with Moscow could not ensure the security of Europe.

The Kremlin said earlier that Macron responded to a message from Russian leader Vladimir Putin on the non-deployment of medium and shorter-range missiles (INF) in Europe.

According to the press secretary of the head of state, Vladimir Putin, in it he expresses his understanding of the concern about the problem and his readiness for dialogue.
