There is no Franco-German conflict, we agree on 80% of the issues

- Sejourne assures Le Monde in an interview.

During a conference in support of Kyiv organized by Paris on Monday, the French president seemed to indirectly attack countries such as Germany, which has long hesitated to supply certain types of heavy weapons to Kyiv.

I spoke with my German colleague Annalena Burbock, and we will see each other next Tuesday in Paris. There is a desire to talk to each other

 ," Sejourne said.

"There is no drama here, as we have one goal - to support Ukraine," he also emphasized.
