In the spotlight: Emmanuel Macron’s phone call to Vladimir Putin

In the spotlight Emmanuel Macrons phone call to Vladimir Putin

Dialogue, not at all costs, but at all costs… It is for this purpose that Emmanuel Macron will indeed meet this morning with Vladimir Putin in order to attempt a de-escalation in the Ukrainian crisis. Because as the newspaper puts it The worlddoes not deviate from its mantra: we must talk to Russia, and hang on, even when the discussion seems hopeless “.

No way out, indeed, sigh Le Figarobecause even if Moscow has recently welcomed the American rejection of its security demands, this newspaper underlines that time is against Putin, and that therefore war then becomes a means “ to stop the clocks “.

As a result and implicitly casting doubt on the aim of French President Emmanuel Macron to attempt mediation by telephone in the Ukrainian crisis using the weapons of diplomacy, this daily believes, on the contrary, that the “ brain teaser » is that the « war aims of the Russian President are impossible to reach through diplomacy “.

Since then, Le Figaro asks himself ” how to dissuade Vladimir Poutine from it? “. According to this newspaper, the only threats that bear are those that jeopardize his power “. Reason why, he concludes, Emmanuel Macron would gain nothing by “ confuse mediation and appeasement “.

Especially since this desire for dialogue with Moscow is far from being shared by everyone in Europe

This is highlighted by the site of The Express. ” This desire to keep the channels of discussion open is not, however, shared by all Europeans, particularly in the former countries of the Soviet sphere of influence. » ; this magazine recalls in particular that last June, when Emmanuel Macron and the former German Chancellor Angela Merkel had proposed the holding of a summit between the EU and Russia, “ they had suffered the clear refusal of several Member States, starting with Poland and the Baltic countries “. Simple as a phone call, happiness? Not sure…

In France, the electoral campaign to the right of the right punctuated by this question: Marion Maréchal will she join Éric Zemmour?

Granddaughter of the founder of the National Front Jean-Marie le Pen, the niece of the candidate of the National Rally Marine Le Pen hesitates. But don’t rule out the idea of ​​joining the Reconquest candidate! ” I’m thinking “, she says to the Parisian. Marion Maréchal confides to this daily that she does not have desire to recreate family fractures but, she adds, if I support Eric, it’s not just to hang around and say hello: it means coming back to politics “.

Marion Maréchal giving herself one month to make her decision, The Parisian assures him: one thing is certain: she will not decide in favor of her aunt Marine Le Pen “. And Marion Maréchal to entrust the Parisian than ” a lot of people at RN are trying to figure out what (she’s) going to do. Some condition their departure on (his) to join Éric Zemmour.

Finally, a word from the CAN, in Cameroon, with the relocation of matches from Yaoundé to Douala. A controversial decision

This is the opinion of The Team. According to the French sports daily, ” if the decision concerning Olembé appears logical and courageous, one can only wonder about the desire to erase the Japoma stadium from the map for a precautionary principle never seen before “, therefore believes The Team.
