Macron Refused Covid Test While Calling on Putin

“French President Emmanuel Macron refused a Kremlin request that he take a Russian COVID-19 test when he arrived to see President Vladimir Putin this week, and was therefore kept at a distance from the Russian leader,” Reuters reports.

Said a French source: “We knew very well that meant no handshake and that long table. But we could not accept that they get their hands on the president’s DNA.”
