“Moscow and Paris could not conclude any deals.

It's simply impossible…" Peskov said.

He explained that France is a member of the EU and NATO, while Paris does not have leadership in the North Atlantic Alliance.

“Therefore, the newspaper simply wrote incorrectly,” the Kremlin spokesman said.

Earlier, the Financial Times, citing unnamed French officials, wrote that during the talks between Putin and Macron, the parties reached an agreement “not to undertake new military initiatives and to conduct a broad dialogue on the deployment of Russian troops.”

At the same time, two sources said that the agreements could also provide for the withdrawal of Russian forces from Belarus after the completion of large-scale joint exercises.
