Yesterday, French Defence Minister Sebastien Lecornu reached out to his Russian counterpart Sergei Shoigu, saying France was ready to step up exchanges to battle “terrorism”, according to the French defence ministry. Russia for its part warned France during the one-hour talks it hoped that the French secret services had not been involved in a recent attack on a concert hall in Moscow claimed by Islamic State group extremists, according to a readout from the Russian defence ministry.“The comments by the Russian side were bizarre and threatening,” Macron told reporters, adding that any suggestions France might have been involved in the deadly attack were “ridiculous”.

“I asked the directors of the services at the appropriate ministries to have technical discussions with their counterparts to express a message of solidarity and because we had useful information—I am not going to reveal it here—on the origin and organisation of this attack,” Macron said.“It’s ridiculous to say that France is behind it, that the Ukrainians are behind it. It makes no sense.
