Politico: Scholz and Duda will meet Macron in Paris on June 12, discuss Ukraine

MOSCOW, June 9 – RIA Novosti. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Polish President Andrzej Duda are expected to visit Paris on Monday next week and meet with French President Emmanuel Macron. oppression Politico cites sources in France.

The main topics of the meeting, which the leaders of the three countries will hold at the dinner, are expected to discuss Ukraine’s accession to NATO and the security guarantees to be received from Kiev’s allies ahead of the alliance’s summit in July. Macron, Scholz and Duda can discuss European issues, including defence, as well as Ukraine.

As the French and German media have already noted, relations between France and Germany are at their lowest point. The most controversial issues concern the marginal gas price, the German Chancellor’s reluctance to support Macron’s idea of ​​European sovereignty and common defense, and the French leader’s negotiations behind his German counterpart. The construction of a gas pipeline between Barcelona and Carcassonne also sparked conflict. Recently, however, Paris and Berlin have been in more contact, and Macron plans to visit Germany in early July.
