JAKARTA - Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov responded to French President Emmanuel Macron who invited European countries to re-establish bilateral relations with Russia.
He acknowledged that Russia was in communication with France, which opened the possibility of high-level dialogue as soon as possible if Moscow-Paris wanted.
"Indeed, contacts have taken place (we can confirm this), which, if desired and necessary, can help in the establishment of a conference at the highest level quite quickly," he said on Tuesday, February 10, quoted by Tass.
Although agreeing to a Russia-France meeting in the near future, it is still not on the agenda of both parties.
"So far, we have not received any indication that this desire exists," he said.
Peskov said Moscow noted Macron's goodwill in an effort to restore relations between the two countries.
Previously, Macron invited a number of European countries to restart bilateral relations with Russia.
Macron sees Europe's geographical location close to Russia so that security, economic and political stability in the region is the shared responsibility of neighboring countries.
He also spoke about the importance of restoring dialogue and the need to build a new European security architecture with Russia.
