00:00Do you think President Macron does have potentially some influence over President Putin?
00:05I hope so.
00:07But you know, the consideration of Mr. Putin is one thing.
00:11The place of the French President, according to what I think,
00:14is to discuss with him and have a direct dialogue with him.
00:18As I told you previously, empty chair is not a policy.
00:22Do you think France and the European Union feel a bit lonely at the moment?
00:26There have been, obviously, extremely strained ties with Russia.
00:30But at the same time, ties with Washington are quite strained and have been quite strained lately.
00:36How would you describe the state of relations between Paris and Washington?
00:40It's a choice that they did.
00:42And then, you know, if you are looking on the map and the weight of the European Union is almost nothing.
00:48They are not able to have a common policy.
00:51They don't have a defense.
00:52I mean, it's difficult, and I think that Putin prefers strong people like President Trump
00:59and doesn't consider the European Union as a partner.
01:04So we have to be back to our seat.
01:07And as I told you, France is a member of the Security Council,
01:11and there is no way that France and the French President has not to speak with President Putin.
01:17Well, I'll be back for your razones.
01:30Bye bye.
01:36Bye bye us for now.
01:38Bye bye.
01:39Bye bye.
01:39Bye bye.
01:40Bye bye.
01:40Bye bye.
01:41Bye bye.
01:41Bye bye bye.
01:42Bye bye.
